Wheat grass juice

Low histamine

Wheatgrass juice is low in histamine and not a known trigger, though it's a potent drink worth introducing gradually.

Wheatgrass itself doesn't contain significant histamine and isn't an established histamine liberator.

  • Low histamine profile — fresh-pressed wheatgrass juice is a young, unfermented plant product with no well-established histamine concerns

  • Strong in general — wheatgrass is quite concentrated and can cause digestive upset in some people regardless of histamine sensitivity, so individual tolerance varies

Starting with a small amount is a reasonable approach, as with any potent green juice.
