Yeah, this is a good question. So let's take the concept of food intolerances in general and let's zoom out for a moment, okay? Which is to say that to me, a food intolerance is where you eat a food and then you have symptoms that you believe are a result from that food.

That's because anything that you put in your body, even water,

Whereas with these other choices that we've now put on the table, FODMAPs and histamine Think about what are the specific foods? It shouldn't be everything. There should be specific foods that are triggering your symptoms. And then you process that information to give yourself guidance as to which of these issues is in fact the problem.

But if you're struggling with beans and whole grains and garlic and onions, or when you eat fruit, then you should think about, or dairy products, you should think about FODMAPs. Ultimately, the way that you prove it is by doing an elimination diet and actually going either low histamine or low FODMAP. And then when your symptoms go away, you just proved it.

With the sorghum, the question that you're asking me is, is this because of the FODMAP content of sorghum or is it that I just went too hard and too fast?

And to me, if it's a one-time deal where you had an issue, but yet you can go back to the food and feel okay, A one-time deal, I wouldn't make that much of it. But when you find that there's a consistency pattern that exists where a particular class of foods is causing trouble for you, then that's where we have to sort this out and clarify the answer to the question.
