Sensitivity notes

Why low fermentation food checker matters

SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) diets focus on reducing fermentable foods that feed bacteria in the small intestine. Low-fermentation foods help manage symptoms like bloating, gas, and abdominal discomfort.

  • Low-fermentation eating reduces food for overgrown bacteria
  • Meal spacing (4-5 hours) allows the MMC to clear the gut
  • Avoid grazing - structured meals are better
  • Some find the elemental diet helpful under medical supervision
  • Address underlying causes with your healthcare provider

What to know about raspberry

Raspberries look innocent but they stack three separate triggers: they are high in salicylates, very high in oxalates and moderate in FODMAPs, which is why searches like "are raspberries high oxalate" and "do raspberries cause itching or reflux" keep coming up. The upside is that in a small serving they stay lower in FODMAPs than most berries, so a spoonful is often tolerated even when a full bowl is not.

Watch for

  • Very high in oxalates, the standout trigger here, a concern if you are prone to kidney stones or follow a low-oxalate diet
  • High in salicylates, so raspberries can drive itching, hives or reflux in people who react to aspirin-type foods
  • Moderate FODMAP: small servings are usually fine but a large bowl brings enough polyols to unsettle a sensitive gut
  • Mildly higher in histamine and tyramine than most fresh fruit, worth noting if amines are your issue
