Why dairy proteins food checker matters
Dairy proteins (casein and whey) can cause reactions in people with milk protein allergy or intolerance. This is different from lactose intolerance and can cause both digestive and systemic symptoms.
- Dairy protein allergy requires complete dairy avoidance
- Casein and whey are the main proteins to avoid
- 'Non-dairy' products may still contain casein
- Ghee may be tolerated as proteins are removed
- This is different from lactose intolerance - treatment differs

What to know about olive
Table olives are one of the highest-salicylate foods on the plate, and they are also high in oxalate, so they can trigger reactions even when the olive oil pressed from them is clean. Because they are cured in brine and often fermented, they pick up a moderate histamine load too, which is why a bowl of olives can bring on itching, flushing or a headache for salicylate- and histamine-sensitive people.
Watch for
- Very high in salicylates, a leading reason olives cause itching, flushing or hives if you react to aspirin or other salicylate-rich foods
- High in oxalate, worth watching if you are managing kidney stones or oxalate load, and separate from the salicylate issue
- Brined and often fermented, so cured olives carry moderate histamine that low-histamine eaters can feel even though fresh produce does not bother them
- Some green olives are held in sulfite-treated brine, a moderate trigger if you react to sulfites in wine or dried fruit
