Is rocket high in low fermentation?

Watch for

• Rated poor for low fermentation SIBO approaches.A large raw bowl is a lot of leaf fiber arriving at once, and people following that protocol usually do better wilting rocket into a hot dish than eating it as the base of a salad
• Oxalate is not rated in our data.Published oxalate tables generally place rocket well below spinach, chard and beet greens, which is why it is so often the leaf people switch to when building a lower oxalate salad, but the numbers differ between sources, so log it rather than assuming
• Salicylate is also unrated here, and salicylate lists disagree about peppery greens in particular.If you are in the strict phase of a salicylate elimination, treat rocket as untested and reintroduce it deliberately instead of counting it as safe
• The pepperiness is itself an irritant for some people: isothiocyanates are the same chemistry that makes mustard and horseradish sting.Older, larger, wild rocket leaves are far sharper than baby leaf, so a burning tongue after a rocket salad is usually the mustard oils rather than an allergy
• Like other dark leaves it is high in vitamin K, which matters if you take warfarin.The guidance there is a steady, consistent intake rather than avoidance, so decide on a habit and keep it
