What to know about asparagus
Asparagus is anti-inflammatory and clean on histamine, yet it is one of the higher-FODMAP vegetables because it is rich in fructans, the same fermentable fiber that makes onion and garlic hard to tolerate. Even a couple of spears can trigger bloating, wind and loose stools if you have IBS, and the low-FODMAP serving is tiny, well under a single spear. Asparagus is also moderate in salicylates and oxalate, so it is a mild secondary trigger for people sensitive to those.
Watch for
- High in fructans, so even a small serving can bloat a FODMAP-sensitive gut
- One of the vegetables people react to most quickly on a low-FODMAP reintroduction
- Moderate in salicylates and oxalate, minor considerations if you react to those
