Is lamb high in nitrites?

Watch for

• Graded pro-inflammatory (E).That is a dietary pattern note about red meat and its saturated fat load, not a chemical trigger you would feel within the hour, so read it as a frequency question rather than an avoid-it verdict
• The low histamine grade belongs to fresh lamb.Mince, meat that has sat several days in the fridge, slow-cooked leftovers reheated twice, and cured or fermented lamb sausage are chemically a different food and can bother a histamine intolerant eater badly
• Alpha-gal syndrome, the tick bite acquired allergy to the sugar galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose, covers all non-primate mammalian meat.Lamb and mutton count, and reactions are typically delayed by three to six hours after the meal, which makes them easy to blame on the wrong food
• Clean on every FODMAP group.Plain meat has essentially no fermentable carbohydrate, so in practice the load arrives with the garlic, onion and yoghurt marinades lamb is nearly always cooked in
• Graded moderate on lectins, in line with the other meats in this data set rather than as a standout, so it is not a useful reason to pick another protein
