What to know about cauliflower
Is cauliflower low FODMAP? Not really. Cauliflower is high in mannitol, a polyol FODMAP, which is why the low-carb darling behind cauliflower rice and cauliflower pizza crust can wreck a sensitive or SIBO gut. It is clean on histamine, oxalate and nickel and is genuinely anti-inflammatory, so the trouble is almost entirely fermentation: it grades high FODMAP, high polyol and poor for SIBO, plus moderately high in salicylates.
Watch for
- High in mannitol, a polyol FODMAP, so even a modest portion can cause bloating, gas and cramps in IBS
- Ferments heavily, making it a poor pick on a low-fermentation SIBO diet
- Moderately high in salicylates, a trigger for salicylate-sensitive people
- Otherwise low in histamine, oxalate and nickel, so for most reactors the issue is FODMAP alone
