Vegetables and Fruits

Many vegetables and fruits, especially the more flavorful ones, are rich in tyramines and histamines. If you are sensitive to these compounds, avoid vegetables like cabbage, tomatoes, eggplant, pickles, olives and spinach as well as fruits like berries, avocado, citrus fruits, dates, papaya, pineapples, raisins and plums. Fermented vegetables like sauerkraut have a very high tyramine and histamine content. Your safest options are green beans, asparagus, pumpkin, potatoes, zucchini and carrots as well as apples, bananas and melons of any kinds.

Whole Grain Energy Bars

I am so excited to share this recipe! The list of ingredients are super healthy and as a bonus they taste really really good! I found this recipe online. It is a version of health bars from Harvest Bread Company. They package and sell theirs for $2 each. You can make a big batch of these for the same price minus the preservatives! They freeze well (if you don't eat them all up first) and are a GREAT healthy breakfast on the go or mid afternoon pick-me-up snack! Great healthy snack for kids!
