What to know about mozzarella
Fresh mozzarella is the cheese to reach for when histamine is your problem: unlike aged cheeses such as parmesan or cheddar, it is barely fermented, so it stays low in histamine and only borderline in tyramine. The catch is lactose. As a fresh, high-moisture cheese it holds far more lactose than a hard aged cheese, and it still carries the milk proteins casein and whey.
Watch for
- High in lactose (grade E), because fresh, high-moisture cheeses keep the milk sugar that long ageing would break down
- Contains casein and whey, the milk proteins behind dairy sensitivity
- Only borderline in tyramine, unlike heavily aged cheeses that are high, so it is a safer cheese if you watch tyramine
- Low in histamine, which sets it apart from parmesan, cheddar and blue cheese
