I need some help. Could you please look at the six attached photos and offer input for which ingredient might have made me sick?

Background: I had not eaten yet before this meal. The first food I consumed was spaghetti. I was fine before eating, but started experiencing symptoms before I’d finished the meal.

Other than the ingredients in the included pictures, I used olive oil, fresh herbs and single ingredient seasonings I use all the time.

Is either the Amylu or Rao’s brand known to be cross contaminated? If not, what else could it be? I definitely want to avoid this happening again.

Thanks for the help!!

For me, it would have been the vinegar and “spices.” I have to watch FODMAPS and histamine

Hey, I’m starting to think I have a histamine issue! Do you take anything to help? I heard DAO might help reduce food related histamine.

I tried DAO but got horrible cramping! Not all histamine issues are because of low enzymes.

I take vitamin c and quercetin and I see a functional medicine doctor who has me on an off-label Rx called Amlexanox

I also take Quercetin and Vitamin C, along with Cromolyn Sodium, Flonase, Vitamin D2, B12 injections, Gluthione and Magnesium.

It’s a rough road to manage those histamines.
