Tilapia

Consume only fresh or frozen immediately after catch.

Suitable

Most people with histamine intolerance tolerate this food well.

Tilapia is considered a low-histamine fish when fresh. As with all fish, there is a significant risk of biogenic amine formation if stored improperly or kept after cooking.

High-protein decay risk: For rapidly perishable high-protein foods, storage and repeated reheating can increase histamine load, and reheating does not destroy the histamine formed.
