Additional Informations
Fortune cookies are a popular dessert often served in Chinese restaurants. Their ingredients typically include flour, sugar, vanilla, and sesame seed oil. None of these ingredients are known to be high in histamine, nor listed as histamine liberators.
Therefore, consuming fortune cookies, should not directly impact the histamine levels or stimulate the release of histamine in the body. Thus, it is generally safe for individuals with histamine intolerance, given the typical ingredients used in its production.
However, it is crucial to note that added food preservatives or artificial colorings in the cookie might act as histamine liberators. These can potentially stimulate the release of histamine in individuals susceptible to histamine intolerance. Unfortunately, not enough definitive studies have been done on this topic to provide a specific list of additives or artificial coloring to watch out for.
It is also worth noting that sesame oil, a common ingredient in fortune cookies, has been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties, and therefore may potentially have a histamine lowering function. However, more research is needed in this area to fully understand the extent of such effects.
As with any diet considerations, individual responses to certain foods may vary, and it's advised to consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns about histamine intolerance and the consumption of certain foods, including fortune cookies.
