What to know about molasses
Molasses is the dark syrup left over from refining cane sugar, and it stacks several triggers into one spoonful. It is high in sulfites and a moderate FODMAP with some excess fructose, so it can set off both sulfite reactions and gut symptoms. It is also unusually rich in minerals like iron, calcium and potassium, which is why it gets a health reputation the trigger profile does not fully earn.
Watch for
- High in sulfites, a trigger for wheezing, flushing or headaches in sulfite-sensitive people
- A moderate FODMAP with some excess fructose, so a large amount can cause bloating and wind
- Carries moderate salicylate and nickel, worth noting if you react to either, though it is genuinely high in iron and other minerals
