What to know about teriyaki sauce
Teriyaki sauce is a sweetened soy glaze, and that combination stacks several triggers at once. It is high in tyramine and free glutamates from the fermented soy, high in fructans from the garlic, and contains gluten because most soy sauce is brewed with wheat. If soy-based sauces give you headaches, flushing or a bloated gut, teriyaki is often a bigger culprit than plain soy sauce because the added sugar makes it easy to pour on a lot.
Watch for
- High in tyramine from fermented soy, a classic migraine and blood-pressure trigger if you are sensitive or on an MAOI
- High in free glutamates, the natural MSG-like umami that can bring on headaches or a flushed, heavy feeling
- High in fructans from the garlic, so it is genuinely high FODMAP and hard on a sensitive gut
- Contains gluten because standard soy sauce is wheat-brewed, so it is not celiac-safe unless labeled gluten-free
