Coconut Flour Histamine Information

Coconut flour, derived from the dried meat of the coconut, is a commonly used alternative to traditional wheat or grain-based flours. From the researched material, there is no explicit information directly correlating the consumption of coconut flour to fluctuation of histamine levels. However, coconut as a whole food is typically not identified as high in histamine nor a histamine liberator, thus one can infer that coconut flour might possess similar characteristics. This indicates that it may not significantly contribute to histamine levels in the body or promote the release of histamine [1]. Additionally, certain properties of coconut and its derivatives have been found to exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capabilities [2]. These properties may play a role in reducing inflammations and counteracting oxidative stress, which are often associated with histamine reactions in the body [3]. However, it is prudent to note that the impact of coconut flour on histamine levels can also be influenced by other factors such as individual body chemistry, extent of processing, and the presence of other ingredients in a meal or product. In conclusion, without concrete scientific data specifically on coconut flour, it is prudent to state: "This product has not been researched well enough to publish any informations, our team is working hard on this. Data will be available soon". References: 1. Maintz, Laura, and Natalija Novak. “Histamine and Histamine Intolerance.” The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2007, doi:10.1093/ajcn/85.5.1185. 2.
