Serving size, prep, and portion notes for egg white
Is egg white a trigger food? On food chemistry it is clean: low in histamine, salicylates, FODMAPs and the rest of that family. Its trigger story is a different one. Egg is a top allergen and one of the six foods removed in the six-food elimination diet for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), and egg white carries most of the egg proteins that cause reactions (ovomucoid, ovalbumin). So egg white can be a genuine problem through IgE allergy or EoE even though it is not a histamine or FODMAP trigger at all.
Watch for
