What to know about orange juice
Orange juice is not high in histamine itself, but it is a histamine liberator, which is the citrus-and-hives connection people notice. It is also high in salicylates and, because juicing strips out the fruit fiber, high in fructose and FODMAPs. A single morning glass concentrates the sugar of several oranges into one fast hit.
Watch for
- A histamine liberator, the reason citrus can cause hives or itching even though it is low in histamine itself
- High in salicylates, a trigger if you react to aspirin or other salicylate-rich foods
- High in fructose and FODMAPs, a common cause of bloating or loose stools, and harder on the gut than a whole orange because juicing removes the fiber
- A concentrated sugar source that grades pro-inflammatory
