Why eoe compatible diet checker matters
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) dietary management often involves eliminating common trigger foods including dairy, wheat, eggs, soy, nuts, and seafood. The six-food elimination diet is commonly used to identify personal triggers.
- The six-food elimination diet removes dairy, wheat, eggs, soy, nuts, and seafood
- Systematic reintroduction with endoscopy helps identify triggers
- Milk/dairy is the most common trigger
- Work closely with your gastroenterologist and allergist
- Elemental diet may be used in severe cases

What to know about sorghum flour
Sorghum flour is the whole grain milled fine, and it is the mildest of the gluten free wholegrain flours: soft textured, faintly sweet, without the sourness of teff or the grassiness of quinoa flour. That neutrality is why it does the heavy lifting in so many gluten free bread and cake blends. It is graded A for gluten and A for lactose and dairy protein, so it clears the two biggest baking allergens outright. Where it parts company with the intact grain is on the borderlines: our data grades the flour C for salicylates and C for oxalate and B for histamine, while whole sorghum grain is graded clean on all three. If you track salicylates or oxalate, log sorghum flour as its own entry rather than folding it in under sorghum, and treat it as the more cautious of the two.
Watch for
- Graded borderline (C) for both salicylates and oxalate, where whole sorghum grain is not.C is moderate, not high, so this is a portion and tracking question rather than a reason to cut it
- Flour is the format where wheat cross contamination actually happens: shared mills, shared bulk bins, shared scoops.Certified gluten free matters more for the flour than for the packaged grain
- It is almost never used alone.A typical blend pairs it with a starch such as tapioca or rice plus a gum, so a reaction to a sorghum flour bake may belong to the starch, the gum or the egg replacer instead
- Graded mildly elevated (B) for histamine and tyramine, which is worth knowing for a long fermented sorghum sourdough rather than for a quick soda bread
- Wholegrain flour still carries the bran, so it behaves like a high fibre flour: a loaf made mostly of sorghum flour is a real fibre load in one sitting
