Identify which foods trigger your HS flares. Every food checked for dairy, yeast, high-GI, and inflammatory markers across 1,709 validated ingredients.
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), connecting dietary histamine to flare severity.
Every food diary asks what you ate. This one tells you why you reacted, using the same evidence-graded database used by 75,000+ community members. Powered by 1,709 validated ingredients with published DOIs.
Whey, casein, lactose, and hidden dairy in processed foods. IGF-1 and mTOR pathway activation promotes follicular occlusion in HS.
Brewer's yeast, baker's yeast, and high-GI foods drive insulin, which drives inflammation. Flagged automatically.
Mast cells are elevated in HS tissue. DAO inhibitors and histamine liberators may amplify the inflammatory cascade.
