Red bell peppers are considered low in histamine, compared to other pepper varieties. However, if you have a histamine intolerance, you should consult with a health professional before including them regularly in your diet.
Are red bell peppers low FODMAP?
Yes, red bell peppers are considered low FODMAP. FODMAPs are types of carbohydrates that some people have difficulty digesting. Red bell peppers only contain a trace amount of these, making them a suitable choice for those following a low FODMAP diet.
Is red bell pepper Keto?
