does anyone have any issues with radish? I am thinking of growing some of the white mooli radish but I am concerned in case it affects my ibs.

Are you asking about radish? Seriously- it’s an unpleasant pungent onion type thing - if I spot it hidden in a salad I remove it, horrible - stays on the breath so I’m pretty sure it’s not helpful for ibs - grow it , gift it - personally, if radishes were extinct - I honestly would niether notice nor care - but if growing it matters to you - get radishing !!!!

Hi, I know that’s low FODMAP. I’ve eaten it but can’t really say if it’s made my IBS worse as I’m always bad in the mornings.

Every food intolerance is personal and it isn't always just FODMAPS. I don't think I can tolerate radish. Perhaps test some from the supermarket before going the whole hog and growing your own.

They give me severe indigestion.

I have never had an issue with radish, or horseradish, which does give your sinuses a work out so I suppose it will be trial and error. I hadn't thought of growing mooli. It is often cooked which might be easier to tolerate.

Might be good for me then as my sinuses are always blocked
