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

Serving size, prep, and portion notes for salt
Salt is not a food-chemistry trigger at all. Sodium chloride carries no histamine, salicylate, FODMAP, oxalate or gluten, so it is safe across every sensitivity this journal tracks. Its only real dimension is sodium: for blood pressure the DASH pattern asks you to keep total sodium down. One common mix-up worth clearing up is MSG, monosodium glutamate, which is a glutamate source and a separate trigger from plain salt.
Watch for
Sodium is the only genuine concern: a high-salt diet raises blood pressure, which is why the DASH approach caps daily sodium / MSG (monosodium glutamate) is a glutamate, not the same as table salt, so a glutamate sensitivity is not a reason to avoid ordinary salt / Brightening food with fresh herbs like chive, thyme or dill lets you use less salt without losing flavour
