little mighty Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Does anyone else get gas, bloating, and inflammation from eating cooked vegetables, especially cruciferous ones? I LOVELOVELOVE steamed and roasted veggies, but the side effects are unbearable! I am taking digestive enzymes and they don't help much. Any suggestions?

Carlaccini Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Yes - I have had this. I have addressed it 2 ways I cut back on them for a bit, and when I did eat them I made sure I also had a side of sweet potato or other starchy carb. It some how made the digestion go easier. This could be a symptom of having a sensitivity to goitgotrens (cruciferous veggies). Do you have issues with IBS? If so you might consider doing a lower FODMAP version of the whole 30.

little mighty Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Thanks for the suggestions! That's interesting about the starchy carb combo...wonder why that is? While my gut is very inflamed, I don't think I have IBS. I have considered trying low FODMAPS but honestly, the complexity of it all scared me Also, there are many foods on the "avoid" list that don't seem to cause me problems, so that was another reason I dismissed it. What's more, I seem to tolerate raw veggies of all kinds just fine - the problem only arises when they're cooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
