How it works

Alcohol causes vasodilation through acetaldehyde-mediated prostaglandin release. Spicy food activates TRPV1 receptors causing neurogenic flushing. High-histamine foods trigger mast cell degranulation.

Triggers vary significantly between individuals. A food and symptom diary is more effective than a generic avoidance list. Very restrictive diets are rarely necessary.

Dietary changes

Consider speaking to a GP, dietitian, or naturopath before making significant changes to your diet, particularly if you have an existing health condition.

โ€œSome improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.โ€
