Frequently asked questions

Which intolerances does Flavor affect?

Flavor is notable for Histamine, Salicylate, FODMAPs and Nickel.

Does Flavor contain Histamine?

Flavor contains moderate levels of Histamine. 'Flavouring' is a catch-all: EU law lets it stand in for hundreds of substances without naming them, so nothing can be said about its histamine load. It is flagged for that opacity, not for a known mechanism — if you react to a product and 'flavouring' is all the label offers, the manufacturer is the only way to find out. Source: Reg. (EC) 1334/2008 on flavourings.

Does Flavor contain FODMAPs?

Flavor contains only low levels of FODMAPs.

Does Flavor contain Nickel?
