Aubergine Histamine Information

Aubergine, also known as eggplant, is a popular edible fruit used in various dishes worldwide. To analyze the impact of aubergine on the histamine level in our body, it is important to understand the content and characteristics of this food item. Aubergine is relatively high in histamine but does not appear to be a significant histamine liberator, meaning that it does not significantly promote the release of histamine in our bodies. Studies focused on histamine content in various foods have not highlighted eggplant as a significant source or promoter of histamine, suggesting it is likely to be safe for those managing histamine levels in their diet. However, some individuals may have a sensitivity or allergic reaction to aubergines, which can cause an increase in histamine levels in their body, as histamine is released as part of the body’s immune response to allergens. This would not occur in everyone, but only those with a specific sensitivity to aubergines. Moreover, aubergines have been reported to contain other biogenic amines such as putrescine and cadaverine, which could potentially affect histamine metabolism, thus possibly enhancing histamine effects indirectly. However, in looking at aubergine’s typical ingredients in terms of how these could influence histamine, it seems that aubergine itself is not likely to significantly influence histamine levels in our body, based on the existing research.
