What to know about mango chutney
Mango chutney is a composite trigger: sweet, spiced and layered. The mango and added sugar make it high in excess fructose and overall FODMAPs, while the onion and garlic that flavour most recipes add fructans, and the vinegar and dried fruit can bring sulfites. It also carries moderate histamine, tyramine and salicylate from the spices and fermentation, so a spoonful can hit several sensitivities at once.
Watch for
- High in excess fructose and overall FODMAPs from the mango and added sugar, a common cause of bloating after a curry
- Onion and garlic in most recipes add fructans, a second FODMAP that hits many IBS sufferers hard
- Moderate sulfites, histamine, tyramine and salicylate from vinegar, dried fruit and warm spices, so reactions can be hard to pin on one cause
