Lima beans

Lima beans fall in the same moderate range as most common legumes — not a high-histamine food, but not without some amine content.

• Biogenic amines — like other beans, lima beans contain amines that add to your overall load, which is most relevant when eaten alongside other moderate or high-histamine foods

• Freshness still applies — canned lima beans carry more amine accumulation risk than freshly cooked dried beans, as with most canned legumes

Keeping portions reasonable and opting for home-cooked over canned tends to keep things more manageable.
