Jasmine rice

Low histamine

Jasmine rice is a plain, unferemented grain with no known histamine-raising properties.

Like most plain white rice varieties, jasmine rice is a simple, minimally processed grain that doesn't accumulate histamine or interfere with how your body breaks it down.

  • No fermentation involved — jasmine rice is just dried and milled, with no aging or culturing process that would build up histamine

  • A common safe staple — plain rice of all varieties is often recommended as a base food for people exploring histamine sensitivity, and jasmine rice fits comfortably in that category

Cooked fresh and stored properly, it tends to be one of the most reliably tolerated grains.
