Additional Informations
Yellow Mustard Seeds, also scientifically referred to as Brassica alba or Sinapis alba, are rich in various nutrients including selenium and omega-3 fatty acid. However, there is limited research specifically about their effects on histamine levels.
One notable compound obtained from mustard seeds is allyl isothiocyanate (AITC). This compound might have an anti-inflammatory effect which could influence histamine levels indirectly. AITC shows promising capacity to modulate inflammation and possibly inhibit histamine release from mast cells (1).
Mustard seeds are also rich in selenium. Selenium is a trace mineral that is essential for human health and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The anti-inflammatory effects could potentially help people with histamine intolerance(2), but more research is needed to validate this.
Apart from that, certain foods can either delay the breakdown of histamine or promote its release. Yellow mustard seeds aren't listed in any of the mentioned categories.
With no direct scientific research on the impact of yellow mustard seeds specifically on histamine levels, it's difficult to make a clear statement. Therefore, this product has not been researched well enough to publish any informations. Our team is working hard on this. Data will be available soon.
