Mango lassi
Mango lassi combines two moderate-histamine ingredients — mango and dairy — which may have a compounding effect for sensitive people.
A mango lassi is a delicious drink that unfortunately layers two foods that many histamine-sensitive people notice reactions to.
-
Mango's histamine load — mango is considered a moderate histamine food, and some sensitive individuals report reactions to it; whether it also acts as a histamine liberator isn't clearly established, but it tends to appear on histamine intolerance lists
-
Dairy as a compounding factor — many people with histamine intolerance also report difficulty with dairy; combining it with a histamine-active fruit like mango can amplify the overall effect
A coconut milk-based mango smoothie using ripe-but-not-overripe mango may be a gentler way to enjoy similar flavors.
