Gold kiwi
Gold kiwi: moderate in histamine. If you're sensitive to any of these, check it against your profile before eating.
Intolerances
- Histamine (+liberators / DAO inhibitors)Moderate
Gold kiwi is a liberator, and it differs from the green kiwi in the way that matters least here and most elsewhere: it has smoother flesh and less actinidin, the protein-digesting enzyme that makes green kiwi tingle. Less enzyme, same liberator standing. It is one of the five fruits the current review names as reported to trigger the release of endogenous histamine, and the review says plainly that the mechanism responsible has not yet been elucidated.
