What to know about artichoke

The globe artichoke is one of the highest-fructan vegetables there is, which is why it rates as a high-FODMAP food. Its fibre is largely inulin, a fructan that gut bacteria ferment quickly, so even a few hearts can bring on bloating, gas and cramping in people with IBS or fructan intolerance. It is also high in salicylates. Otherwise artichoke is remarkably clean: low in histamine, anti-inflammatory, and friendly to nearly every diet.

Watch for

  • Very high in fructans (inulin), among the most fructan-dense vegetables and a strong FODMAP trigger for bloating, gas and IBS flares
  • High-FODMAP overall, so the hearts stay a trigger too: tinned or marinated preparations do not remove the fructans
  • High in salicylates, one to keep in mind if you are salicylate-sensitive
  • Moderate oxalate, a minor consideration for anyone managing kidney stones
