Sensitivity notes
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 orange
Oranges are low in histamine themselves but act as a strong histamine liberator, meaning the citrus prompts your body to release its own histamine. That is a common reason oranges cause itching, hives or flushing even when they test low in histamine. They are also high in salicylates and high in oxalates, so the same fruit can be a trigger on three separate chemistry pathways at once.
Watch for
- A strong histamine liberator, so oranges can set off hives, itching or flushing even though the fruit is low in histamine itself
- High in salicylates, a frequent trigger if you react to aspirin or salicylate-rich foods
- High in oxalates, which matters if you form kidney stones or follow a low-oxalate diet
- Citrus is a well-known reaction food, so start small if you are testing your tolerance
