Do These 2 Vegetables Make You Bloated? This is Why and How to Fix It
Fri Feb 06 2026
In this episode, Dr. Jockers explains how certain vegetables can lead to bloating and discomfort, particularly for those with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). He highlights the connection between oral bacteria, low stomach acid, and digestive distress caused by fermentable fibers in vegetables.
You'll learn about the role of FODMAPs—fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols—and why they can trigger digestive issues like gas and bloating. Dr. Jockers shares which vegetables, like broccoli and cauliflower, are more likely to cause these symptoms.
Dr. Jockers also offers practical advice on how to reduce bloating by following a low FODMAP diet. He discusses the benefits of carefully reintroducing certain foods to identify your personal tolerance levels and how to restore digestive balance.
