What to know about red bell pepper
Red bell peppers are anti-inflammatory and clean on histamine, but they are rated high in salicylates and are a nightshade, which is the combination that catches people out. If sweet peppers give you headaches, itching or a flare on an elimination diet, salicylate sensitivity and the nightshade family are the two things to look at, along with a higher FODMAP load in big portions.
Watch for
- Rated high in salicylates, a frequent trigger if you react to aspirin, tomatoes or other salicylate-rich produce
- Nightshade vegetable, so it comes out on AIP and nightshade-free protocols even though it is not a starch like potato
- Rated higher FODMAP by volume, so a whole raw pepper can bother a sensitive gut more than a few strips
- Rated high in lectins, one more reason lectin-avoiders limit raw peppers
