Millet flour

Low histamine

A naturally gluten-free grain flour with no known histamine-raising properties, making it well-tolerated by most.

Millet flour is a simple, minimally processed grain that doesn't contain histamine or known histamine-triggering compounds.

  • Naturally inert — millet doesn't ferment during standard milling, so no histamine builds up in the flour itself

  • Gluten-free bonus — a useful base for baking without the additives sometimes found in commercial gluten-free blends

Fresh, plain millet flour stored in a cool dry place is your best bet for keeping it stable.
