Status: Not recommended
Tuna (Canned) is classified as not recommended for Histamine Intolerance based on current dietary assessments. Meat and fish are important protein sources but differ considerably in fat content and fatty acid profiles. With histamine intolerance, attention is paid to the histamine content and histamine-releasing properties of foods, as the body cannot break down histamine sufficiently. The reasoning given is: canned fish, high histamine levels possible despite Grenzwerten. The assessment is supported by a broad evidence base.
