Why vegan diet checker matters

A vegan diet excludes all animal products including meat, dairy, eggs, and honey. It focuses on plant-based foods like vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds.

  • Ensure adequate protein from varied plant sources
  • Supplement B12 - it's essential and not available from plants
  • Consider omega-3 from algae-based supplements

Serving size, prep, and portion notes for mulberry

Mulberry turns up again and again as the suggested alternative on our berry pages, and it earns that for one specific reason: it is the dark berry with no high grades anywhere. Blueberry, raspberry and blackberry all grade D for salicylate, and raspberry adds an E for oxalate on top. Mulberry grades A for histamine content, B for histamine liberation, B for salicylate, B for oxalate and B for total FODMAPs, which is mild across the board rather than clean. Two honest caveats keep it from being a free pass: nickel sits at B, and the version most people can actually buy is dried, which concentrates the sugar and fructose that fresh mulberry only carries at a B.

Watch for

Not zero, just low. Mulberry holds essentially no histamine of its own at A, but grades B as a liberator, so a very large portion is still a dose worth logging if histamine is the thing you are chasing. / Nickel B is the grade people miss. It is minor for fresh fruit and more relevant in the dried form, which is how mulberry is usually sold and which stacks with the nuts and seeds that dominate a nickel-restricted diet. / Dried mulberries are a different food from fresh. Drying removes most of the water and leaves the sugars behind, so the B grade for excess fructose describes fresh fruit and understates a handful of dried white mulberries. / Mulberries are structurally fragile, crush under their own weight and stain everything they touch, which is why supermarkets sell them dried or frozen and almost never fresh. Fruit that has travelled warm and soft starts to ferment, and fermentation is where a low-histamine fruit stops being one. / White, red and black mulberry taste very different. White is mild and honeyed with almost no acidity, black is the intense tart-sweet one, red sits between them. The trigger grades on this page do not split by species, so treat them as one profile until your own log says otherwise.
