What are FODMAPs?
FODMAP (Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, And Polyols). They are a type of carbohydrate that is found in plant foods. However, not all carbohydrates are considered FODMAPs. FODMAPs are osmotic, meaning that they pull water into the GI tract. When eaten in excess, they may not be digested or absorbed very well and they can become fermented by bacteria in the GI tract. Low FODMAP diets are often recommended to people who suffer from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) or FGIDs (functional gastrointestinal disorders).

Many high fiber foods contain high amounts of FODMAPs. Common FODMAPs in your daily diet can include:

  • Fructose: most fruits, honey, and high fructose corn syrup
  • Fructans (inulin): onion, garlic, and wheat
  • Lactose: dairy
  • Galactans: lentils, beans, and legumes including soy
  • Polyols: artificial sweeteners containing sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, maltitol, and stone fruits, such as avocado, apricots, cherries, nectarines, peaches, and plums
  • Fiber supplements: Inulin, FOS, wheat dextrin, GOS, and IMOs
