What to know about broccoli
Broccoli is one of the most anti-inflammatory vegetables you can eat, which is why its trigger profile catches people off guard: it is high in salicylates, high in free glutamates, and carries mannitol, a FODMAP polyol. Searches for "is broccoli high in salicylate" or "why does broccoli upset my stomach" almost always trace back to one of those three, not to histamine.
Watch for
- High in salicylates (grade D), a real trigger if you react to aspirin or other salicylate-rich plants
- High in free glutamates, the natural umami compound that can bother people who are sensitive to MSG-like foods
- Contains mannitol and fructans, so the stalks and larger servings are the parts most likely to cause gas and bloating
- Rated poorly for SIBO, where even moderate fermentable fibre can flare symptoms
