LOW FODMAP FRUITS ???
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
➖FODMAP refers to a group of fermentable, poorly absorbed short-chain carbohydrates. Tolerance of these varies person to person and may cause IBS symptoms in some. The acronym stands for Fermentable, Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, And Polyols
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
➖The following fruits are suitable on a low FODMAP diet in the following amounts: blueberries (1/4 cup), grapes (1 cup), kiwi (2 small), lemon (1/2 cup juice), lime (1 cup juice), mandarins (2 small), oranges (1 medium), passionfruit (2), paw paw (1 cup), raspberries (60g), rockmelon (1/2 cup), strawberries (10 medium).

➖It’s important to not attempt a low FODMAP without the support of a Dietitian. Each individual has different trigger foods and different amounts that bring on symptoms. For example- it is not necessary to avoid all other fruits forever because you may not react to every ‘FODMAP’ carbohydrate and you may be able to tolerate certain amounts of others. A Dietitian is a must to guide you through the process, identify your trigger foods and amounts whilst also ensuring you maintain an optimal nutrient intake.
