The person who created this recipe, Amanda, was in the search for a nutritious drink that would not disturb her histamine sensitivity. She loved a good smoothie, but many of her previous recipes contained histamine-rich ingredients. So, she decided to develop a smoothie recipe that was both low histamine and delicious. After many experiments, she perfected this Creamy Almond Milk Smoothie. Now, she starts most mornings with a glass of this delicious smoothie.
This Creamy Almond Milk Smoothie is suitable for a low histamine diet, as it contains almond milk instead of regular milk, which is low in histamine. Additionally, bananas and blueberries are generally well tolerated, while almond butter and flax seeds are low in histamine. Maple syrup, used as a natural sweetener, contains low to negligible levels of histamine as well.

Using a high-powered blender will help break down the flax seeds and incorporate all the ingredients into a smooth texture.
Freezing your banana and blueberries not only gives the smoothie a creamy, ice cream-like texture, it also means that you can keep these fruits on hand and ready to use anytime.
Feel free to adjust the amount of maple syrup according to your taste. Remember, you can always add more, so start with less if you're unsure.
You can swap the blueberries for other low histamine fruits, like fresh pear or apple. This can give your smoothie a different flavor while still keeping it low in histamine.
Remember that everyone's tolerance to histamine can be different, so it's important to pay attention to your body and adjust your diet accordingly. Always discuss dietary changes with a healthcare professional.
