You Should Avoid
New to FODMAPs? Welcome! You’ve landed on my blog where I teach people about the , an which helps ease of (IBS) and may help those with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). If you have inflammatory disease (IBD), or celiac/ and follow a but have of IBS, the may help you too.
If you’re tired from intruding on your life, there’s good news. The is an evidence-based diet that helps relieve and allows you to figure out your personal triggers.
Please don’t self diagnose yourself with IBS. See a gastroenterologist and ask to be screened for /. Why is this important? There are many similarities in of and other gastrointestinal disorders such as .
Before screening you must also be consuming gluten. Not doing so could show false negative results for .
Other health issues can also feel like IBS so during your diagnosis, it’s important to get them ruled out as well. Read this post for more information.
What are FODMAPs?
But first, what are FODMAPs and what is this all about?
The eliminates high in FODMAPs, which are short-chain carbohydrates (sugars and fibers) that are poorly absorbed in the small intestine. The FODMAPs then move on to the large intestine, creating an osmotic effect, where water is pulled into the bowels (this can affect how fast or slow the bowels move). Bacteria in the large intestine have a feast and ferment the FODMAPs, triggering gas, , abdominal distention, , constipation and/or diarrhea.

Which Contain FODMAPs?
FODMAPs are found in the and drinks we eat every day. They are even found in over the counter medicines and medications. The acronym FODMAP stands for:
Oligosaccharides (Fructans and Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS))
(Lactose)
(excess )
And
Polyols (eg. Sorbitol, Mannitol, Maltitol, Xylitol, Isomalt).
If you are following the , you will want to avoid all high in FODMAPs during the Elimination Phase. You will continue eating low FODMAP through the Challenge Phase and “challenge” certain high FODMAPs during that phase.
You may know that most sodas contain . This sweetener is made from corn starch and contains excess . It falls under the “D” in FODMAP, Disaccharide.
The is not a but some people do end up losing weight simply because they are eating healthier (less packaged , more whole ).
You can learn more about the low FODMAP diet by checking out my most popular Top Posts & Pages.
Here is a short list of foods that contain FODMAPs (You can read more on our free Low-FODMAP Grocery List):
- Oligosaccharides – (fructans) Garlic, onions, wheat, inulin, artichokes; (galacto-oligosaccharides [GOS]) legume beans, lentils, chickpeas.
- – , condensed and evaporated , powder, ice cream, yogurt, soft, unaged cheeses.
- – Honey, agave, apples, mangoes, pear, watermelon, (HFCS).
- And
- Polyols: apples, avocado, cherries, nectarines, prunes, mushrooms, , sorbitol or other .

How Long Does the Last?

wondering is cocoa powder o.k, or dark chocolate to eat if not what can u sub with? also… what about whey protein or protein bars without soy added or gluten? any acceptable at least? Thanks!! I am New to FodMaps and need to follow it BADLY!! Thank you!!
Hi Jen,
Please reference the grocery list, and scroll to bottom to find info about chocolate: https://fodmaplife.com/fodmap-grocery-list/
For protein powders, I got my information from Patsy Catsos RD: Egg white is OK, Rice is OK, Whey protein isolate is OK
Whey protein concentrate is only OK if a lactose free claim is also made. 98% or better is probably fine for all but the most lactose-intolerant people.
Soy protein probably has FODMAPs
Soy protein isolate is an unknown. If truly an “isolate”, then it would have been separated from the fiber in the soy, so might be OK.
Hemp protein is an unknown with respect to FODMAP status
Pea protein of any kind is an unknown but probably has FODMAPs
Hope you’ve signed up for our newsletter: http://goo.gl/AW6GkK ~ Colleen
thanks for replying… What about protein bars?? Must be fodmaps friendly! I know gluten free exists but tthats it…. I need fodmaps friendly!! Thanks!!
OOPS!! Also I did look says dark chocolate o.k.. but Not Carob powder I Get that… But I don’t se anything about Cocoa powder!! Sorry for so many questions!! Thanks!!
Hi Colleen,
Jen Again!!! I was wondering about Black Currants?? I was told those were o.k? I don’t see them on either list and I see grapes are o.k.. So are Raisons o.k?? Also… You say Bananas o.k.. But how ripe do they need to be?? Also…. ARe ALL BEANS a NO?? I was wondering about Black beans! As well as Cocoa Powder. Thanks so much! Really appreciate it!!
and YES.. I did most definately sign up for the news letter!! Thanks so much!!
Jen
Hi Jen,
The composition of blackcurrants varies a lot depending on how ripe they are – levels of sugars, fruit acids and anthocyanins generally increase as the fruit ripens. From Monash University, I only see “currants” listed (nothing specific like black, red, white or pink currants). The currants they refer to are under the “processed fruit” category and therefore have a HIGH FODMAP rating – because processed fruits are high in sugars (Oligosaccharides). 1 TB is safe and your limit. Raisins need to be limited to the same serving size too – pretty much any dried fruit is high in fodmaps because the sugars have become so concentrated from drying. Dried cranberries are also OK again for a 1 TB serving.
Cocoa powder and cocoa powder for drinking- 2 heaping teaspoons is OK
With chick peas (canned) as well as lentils (canned) 1/4 C is OK. Green and red lentils (boiled) has a moderate rating. Butter beans (canned) has a high rating. Boiled lima beans, haricot beans, red kidney beans and soya beans are also HIGH. Canned borlotti beans are HIGH, same with baked beans.
Good luck – Colleen 🙂
Hi Colleen,
Thanks for replying!! I have another (or few more questions).. I was wondering More so on Black beans… I haven’t seen those on the list at all… as well as Tapioca Fiber ( i find this in certain protein bars) Wondering if that is safe and what it is? Also, Probiotic Fibers such as Isomalto-Oligosaccharides? What IS THAT??? I take probiotics what should I stay Clear from Because my gas gets SOOoooooooooo bad some days worse than others and wondering if things like this can hurt. Another question is whats the difference between High Fructose Corn Syrup and corn syrup?? Is corn syrup safer to eat in moderation seeing corn is o.k. to eat in moderation?? Thanks again REALLY APPRECIATE All your Help… I really Am Grateful! Thanks again 🙂
Jen
Colleen…so grateful for your website!!! where can I have tests done for ..Hydrogen Breath and Malabsorb Lactose , not going to a Dietician….thank you
I had mine done with a gastroenterologist. What you want to keep in mind is to find a gastro who specialized in IBS. There are some that only specialize in celiac or only in IBD. Find out what his/her specialty is before you go through all the tests and appointments with them!
Colleen,
what is a Hydrogen Breath test?? I am going soon for the lactose test and fructose breath test. is that the same as Hydrogen?? Curious…?? Because lately cannpt eat ANYTHING… Real bad..! Also I mentioned on another post about cassava and I found out what it is is Yuka root? Is that o.k to eat it seemed to make me very gassy!! Also wondering about Tapioca fiber in protein bars is that similar to galacto-oligosaccharides?? Thanks so much!!
Jen
Colleen ..I believe I saw a recipe for roasted Brussell Sprouts…but did not see them on your shopping list…are they allowed. Thanks again
Yes please read the beginning paragraph where I go into detail about it. Having just a couple brussels sprouts will be fine for you – low in FODMAPs.
I’ve been told WORD PRESS website is not a secure website….I’m not rec’g emails .. Help please.
Colleen…thank you, I have gone to the same Gastro Dr. for 20 yrs., I do not believe he specializes in IBS…have an appt. next wk. I will ask prior to my apt re: tests …thanks ps. I have so many ?’s , just getting started. BTW, will you please respond to my other comments?
Can you explain color-coded vegetables in low fodmap grocery list….please
Was told today that I need to look into starting the FODMAP diet. But…here’s the deal…I am currently taking THRIVE by Le-Vel. More info can be found at http://www.le-vel.com (ingredients and such). And to be honest, I LOVE it. Wondering now though if I need to stop the capsule, shake, DFT patch regimen while doing the FODMAP diet. I am fairly overwhelmed with all of this. Thanks so much!
How much longer do you have with Thrive?
I really need to know if I can have Quaker Oats oatmeal.
Hi Kim, Do you follow a gluten-free diet? If not than regular quick-cooking oats are fine at a 1/4 cup dry.
I follow FODMAP. Thank you so much
Thank you! Subscribe to my email newsletter too!
goo.gl/XOoQyQ
Hi Colleen, Does it have to be quick cooking or can I use rolled or whole oatmeal?
It can be quick cooking or rolled oats!
Colleen I’m on thrive also. Was there a answer to your question?
No, never received one.
While it’s an 8 week experience, I have been on it since June of last year.
Hi, thank you for your information! I’m curious about soybean oil? And coconut oil?
All oils are considered low-FODMAP, so all good! Just keep in mind that oils/fat can affect gut motility so use sparingly. 1-2 tablespoons
Hi I was wondering with meats are they all fodmap friendly like ham, pepperoni, prosciutto. I can’t find anything specific about this. Thank you
HI Brittany! Read this page and scroll down to MEAT https://fodmaplife.com/fodmap-foods-to-avoid/ That should answer your question. I do not see ham, pepperoni, prosciutto being a problem as long as nothing high-FODMAP has been added to them.
There seems to be conflicting information on Tumeric and Curcumin. I have read that they are both high and low. Could you confimr
Hi Colleen
Yes can you pls confirm on tumeric i too have heard conflicting info as well as saffron which is tumeric. I would like to know definitely on more spices. Thanks
Jen
Are black beans okay? I can’t seem to find them here or on any other website.
Hi Johnathen, According to low-FODMAP research, black beans are HIGH in FODMAPs. Other beans high in FODMAPs are: baked beans, borlotti, broad, butter, four bean mix, haricot, lima, red kidney and soya. Hope that helps and be sure to sign up for our newsletter for more tips, advice and recipes! SIGN UP: http://goo.gl/HCX1xD
So sad that onions and garlic are “no-no”s. Have you ever seen a situation where an individual is sensitive to some but not all of the restricted foods? Also, a big question of mine when keeping my food journal (which I have been doing) is…How long does it take to react to a certain food? For instance, if I have garlic and don’t have a stomach issue for 2 days, does that rule out a negative reaction to garlic? Once more question. Where does popcorn (specifically a brand called Skinny Pop) fall in the fodmap list. Low or high?
Hi Leslie,
Good question! That is the purpose of following the low-FODMAP diet – to see which FODMAPs cause the most trouble. Even though you may end up negating a food and find that later it’s not an issue for you – it still means that by following the diet, you’ll have a more accurate account of what your real triggers are. You can take a hydrogen breath test to see if you malabsorb fructose, lactose or polyols. If no intolerance is found, then you can eat those foods during the elimination phase. For Skinny Pop you would need to send me the ingredients.
I seem to have a problem with all nuts, as soon as I eat them my tummy distends alarmingly and gives me pain, then a lot of gas, if I do have IBS would it be best to avoid nuts in total, or does this strike you or anyone else as being more colitis than IBS? I’m the same way with lettuce, and really anything raw other than banana’s.
Do you have colitis? If so, it’s recommended to stay away from whole or pieces of nuts, but nut butters are ok. No pistachios or cashews on the low-FODMAP diet.
I recently had an annual physical with my internist. She is very concerned about my weight loss. (I am 5’5” and went from 130 to 120 lbs since I have been watching the FODMAPS. She said my BMI is 20 and should be higher. How can I gain weight if I have to limit my food, limit my portions of food and wait 3 hours between eating. I am frustrated and hungry. Please advise.
I need to explain a bit further because if I was just using FODMAP, I could probably eat more. I have restricted myself more (SCD) because of a suspicion of SIBO. Breath test was negative but GI doc put me on rifaximin anyway due to symptoms. As soon as I introduce something NOT on SCD, I pay for it. That may explain my frustration (above post) a bit better.
Do you have a list of foods by FODMAPs – eg frustose, lactose, polyols – rather than by food e.g. fruits, grains etc.
Thanks 🙂
Yes, please scroll all the way down on this page!
Is Tabasco or Sriracha allowed on low-FODMAP diet?
Both have not been tested/analyzed but you can always try a little to see if it bothers your gut. Hot sauce can be an irritant for some people’s guts.
Hello.
Just wondering which protein powders willl work with the fodmap diet. Are there brands that are fodmap friendly? Thank you.
Hi there, Yes- please check out this page, scroll to the bottom: https://fodmaplife.com/low-fodmap-brands/
I am wondering about a product called Yucan Crunch Crackers containing only 100% Yuca Root fiber. Is this a low-FODMAP food?
Wow, I just checked them out, they look delicious. According to recent research, a 1/2 cup diced yucca root is low-FODMAP (in the UK). Since this product has not been tested for FODMAP content, I can not exactly say whether or not it is LOW or HIGH in FODMAPs. Sometimes when a food goes through processing, the elements change. This change could make the food higher in FODMAPs. If you want to try a small serving of it and test your own tolerance, that’s always an option.
Hello,
You keep referring to Refer to Low-FODMAPs List for serving size. Could you please email me a list.
Also, which legumes are low canned?
Thank you

Hi, I am brand new to this whole concept, but, have been struggling with gluten and certain dairy issues for about ten years in addition to other gut/digestion/at times constipation issues, and it’s only getting worse, so I came upon this and believe it could help me, as the pain, distension, bloating and overall unwell feeling is awful.
There is so much to learn about and understand and like I said I’m a newby.
Thanks for making this available, I hope it helps.
I am new to FodMap focused eating. The Monash University lists say yogurt, rice milk are Low FodMap. This website says they are not. It also states Lactose-Free milk and gluten-free corn flakes are low FodMap, which I don’t see mentioned here. Would you clarify, please? Thank you in advance for your time.
Hi Joni,
I have updated our high-FODMAPs list. Please download here: http://bit.ly/highFODMAP
Hi Colleen! Thanks for this much needed info!
I have just started the low FODMAPS diet and I already feel better! Yeah!! Its been years!
this is every food that exists
and therefore necessitates a list of foods that are, rather, NOT fodmaps
Hi Adriana,
It’s not every food that exists but you can check out a list of low-FODMAP foods here: https://fodmaplife.com/fodmap-grocery-list/
Hi Coleen! Any recommendations on a milk substitute? I cannot tolerate lactose or milk protein (haven’t tried whey protein isolate). I am currently drinking soya milk made with soya beans (Holland and Barett brand, UK) which I seem to tolerate (250ml heated up, drink at night) but then again, I do get symptoms every 2nd to 3rd day (I can have 3-4 days max of symptom free bliss). I was wondering if you think I should stop the soya milk, or make my own soya milk using shop bought pure soya protein isolate (you cant get ready made soya milk which is made from soya isolate.) I choose soya milk due to the higher protein content. All other milks have barely any protein and I am vegan,
Can you have almond, hemp, rice, oat, quinoa or macadamia milk? Check the Monash FODMAP app for appropriate servings.
Colleen.
Is fresh Jackfruit lowfodmap??
Not that I have seen yet- it hasn’t been tested yet.
what should i eat. I have both lactose intolerance and fructose intolerance. I was just identified that I have both with IBS for a good measure. What would a meal plan be. I would appreciate some help in coordinating meals. Thank you.
When you work with a dietitian they would take a look at your past and present health and devise a plan for you of low-FODMAP foods. The diet does allow lactose but very small amounts and it allows fructose-containing foods too, but just those that do not contain excess fructose. If all lactose and fructose bothers you, the dietitian would just have you eat all the other foods on the low-FODMAP diet food list. The low-FODMAP diet may very well work for you!
Hi Colleen,
Iam tested to be fructose and lactose intolerant. Will there be a test to check the degree of severity of my intolerance? Now being over 60, I can’t have onion and garlic in my food. Iam becoming sensitive. Looking at fodmap food list, there are food that is high oligos and polyols but low n fructose which iam confused whether to eat or not. Thank you for people like you that gives us light at the end of the tunnel.
Marilyn
Thank you!
