What to know about radish

Radish is close to spotless on the usual suspects: no histamine, no lactose, no gluten, no oxalate, no nickel, no lectins, not a nightshade. Its one genuine flag is salicylates, where it grades high. If a salad leaves you flushed, itchy or headachy and you already cleared the obvious triggers, the peppery radish slices are a fair place to look, because salicylates are concentrated in exactly the sharp, bitter compounds that give radish its bite.

Watch for

  • High in salicylates.Radish is one of the stronger salicylate vegetables, and because it is eaten raw in handfuls rather than cooked down, a single salad can carry a real dose
  • Moderate on FODMAPs by volume.A few slices are fine for most sensitive guts, but a big raw bowl can bring gas and bloating
  • Fermented radish is a different food.Kimchi radish and takuan pickles gain histamine during fermentation even though fresh radish itself is low histamine
  • Radish leaves and sprouts are sharper still, so microgreens and radish tops concentrate the same salicylate character into a smaller serving
