I woke up feeling achy and as if my body is catching a cold. I Spent most of the day doing laundry and lying down on the sofa when I wasn’t up attending to the kids.
Right after enjoying a comforting bowl of homemade bone broth (approximately 30 min later), my eyes felt itchy!
Bone broth, which is usually considered to be rich in its nutrient profile, can sometimes lead to allergic reactions in certain people. I will continue to research this and keep note as to whether I get allergies when drinking bone broth.
With very little research so far, I have found that bone broth can be too high in histamine, especially the longer you cook it (mine is cooked for 24 hours). “Histamines are naturally occurring compounds that play a role in the body's immune response. Some individuals may be sensitive to histamines, and excess consumption can lead to symptoms of histamine intolerance.”
I need to research more about this. If you have any proven research please send it my way in the comments.
