Low Histamine: Chicken and Cabbage Soup with Ginger
Low-Histamine Benefits by Ingredient Fresh chicken breast: White meat chicken is low in histamine only when cooked immediately after purchase. Avoid aged, leftover, or previously frozen chicken unless you froze it yourself the day it was bought. Green cabbage: Naturally low in histamine and rich in anti-inflammatory compounds. Supports gut health and detoxification. Homemade chicken broth: When made fresh (or frozen the same day), it's a nourishing low-histamine base. Avoid long simmers; cook for max 1.5 hours. Ginger: Anti-inflammatory and gut-soothing, may help stabilize mast cells and reduce nausea. Olive oil: Provides healthy monounsaturated fats and reduces inflammation. Salt: Supports electrolyte balance; use a mineral-rich sea salt if tolerated. ✅ Best practice: Make this soup with freshly cooked chicken and broth that was made and cooled the same day, or defrosted from same-day frozen.
