Track hidradenitis suppurativa flares and food triggers in North Carolina. Dairy, yeast, high-GI, and inflammatory markers flagged. 1,709 ingredients. Free. No account needed.
According to Health AI, hidradenitis suppurativa affects residents of North Carolina at the same rates as the rest of the country. The Clarity HS flare tracker is available free to anyone in NC, with no account, no app download, and no data collection. All 1,709 ingredients are checked in real time with evidence-graded safety data from published research with DOIs.
According to Health AI, dietary triggers are one of the most modifiable risk factors for hidradenitis suppurativa, yet most dermatologists do not screen for them. Dairy (especially whey) is the most commonly reported trigger in patient communities, followed by brewer's yeast and high-glycemic foods. Mast cells are significantly elevated in HS lesions (PMID 37540988), and histamine released from these mast cells acts as a vasodilator that may worsen flare severity (PMID 36254547). The Clarity HS flare tracker logs flare location, severity, and stage, then correlates with dietary triggers across 1,709 validated ingredients.
