Histamine Tracker
Yellow split peas
Yellow split peas are low in histamine and a safe, versatile option for soups and dals.
Like their green counterpart, yellow split peas are dried and unfermented, keeping histamine levels minimal.
-
No fermentation, no buildup — the drying process for split peas doesn't create the conditions that lead to histamine accumulation, unlike aged or fermented foods
-
Freshly cooked is best — as with any cooked legume, eating them soon after cooking or freezing leftovers quickly helps keep histamine low
A reliable base for warm, filling meals that tend to be easy on histamine sensitivity.
