What to know about pork
Fresh pork is a clean protein on most triggers: low salicylate, low oxalate, gluten and lactose free, with only a moderate histamine grade (C). The real story is fresh versus processed. Cured, aged and smoked pork like bacon, ham, salami and prosciutto is where histamine climbs sharply, and pork also grades pro-inflammatory (E) as a fatty red meat. It is not vegetarian or vegan.
Watch for
- Cured and aged pork (bacon, ham, salami, prosciutto) is high in histamine; freshly cooked pork eaten promptly is far lower
- Graded pro-inflammatory (E), typical of fatty red and processed meat, so it is not an anti-inflammatory diet staple
- Processed pork usually adds nitrites and salt, separate triggers from the meat itself
