Portion-dependent
Low FODMAP only up to the serving size listed — larger servings stack.
Safe serving
75 g of heads; stalks are higher
FODMAP group responsible
- Fructans — Oligosaccharides. Wheat, onion, garlic. The most common trigger and the hardest to avoid.
Why
Broccoli heads are low FODMAP at 75 g. The stalks carry more fructans than the florets, so a dish built from chopped whole stems reaches the limit sooner than one made from the tops.
