Additional Informations
Pearl barley, a whole grain, has been found to have certain health benefits, but its specific impact on histamine levels is not well-documented in scientific literature. As per available information, it is not listed among foods high in histamine, nor is it identified as a histamine liberator or a food that could delay histamine breakdown.
Nonetheless, investigating its components: barley is a rich source of dietary fiber, including beta glucan. Dietary fibers have demonstrated potential in regulating the immune system and reducing inflammation. One study suggests that beta glucans may help in reducing allergy response by suppressing histamine release (Jung et al., 2004). However, sufficient studies directly correlating barley consumption and histamine levels are not available and it would be speculative to draw definitive conclusions.
In conclusion, there's no significant evidence to suggest that pearl barley considerably impacts histamine level. As pearl barley is not high in histamine, a histamine liberator, or a substance that delays histamine breakdown.
However, those with a histamine intolerance or similar conditions should consult their healthcare provider before making any significant changes in their diet, including the addition or removal of pearl barley.
