FODMAPs

Comments

 
Picture
Fermentable Oligo-, Di- and Mono-saccharides and polyhydric alcohols poorly absorbed in the small intestine. Include Fructose, Lactose, Fructan & otherFructooligosacharides, Galactooligosaccharides and Polyols.

FODMAPs contribute to "Functional gut" symptoms (bloating, wind, abdominal distension, discomfort,  pain, altered bowel habits). With Fructose intolerance, symptoms peak after about 90 mins, with inulin sensitivity, symptoms peak after about 4 hours of eating.
Low FODMAP diet has been shown to help sufferers of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO),  Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD: Crohn's, ulcerative colitis), celiac disease, fructose malabsorption, and patients with colectomy.

High FODMAP foods include apples, apricots, asparagus, beans, cashews, dates, garlic, milk, onions, peaches, pears, pistachios, plums, rye, wheat.
