Shopping for Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), allergies, and histamine intolerance involves selecting products that are low in triggers that may exacerbate symptoms. Keeping a trigger diary may be helpful.
Tips:
Fresh foods: Choose very fresh foods whenever possible, or very fresh flash-frozen foods.
Read labels: Check labels for ingredients that may contain hidden problems, such as artificial preservatives, colorings, and flavorings.
Allergy-friendly products: Look for allergy-friendly, hypoallergenic, all-natural versions of products.
Check for cross-contamination: Be aware of potential cross-contamination with triggers when purchasing packaged foods.
Consider organic options: These may be less likely to contain pesticides, additives, and other potential triggers.
Ask an expert: Ask a healthcare provider or registered dietitian who specializes in managing MCAS, allergies, and histamine intolerance.
