What is Low FODMAP?
FODMAPs are short-chain carbohydrates that some people have difficulty absorbing. The acronym stands for Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols. When poorly absorbed, they ferment in the gut, causing bloating, gas, and discomfort. A low FODMAP approach helps identify your personal triggers through a structured elimination and reintroduction process.
Common symptoms
- Bloating after meals
- Excess gas and flatulence
- Abdominal pain or cramping
- Diarrhea or constipation (or alternating)
- Nausea after eating certain foods
Foods to Embrace
- Rice, quinoa, oats
- Firm tofu, tempeh
- Eggs, most meats and fish
- Oranges, strawberries, blueberries
- Carrots, potatoes, spinach
- Maple syrup, garlic-infused oil
Foods to Limit
- Garlic and onion (fructans)
- Wheat, rye, barley
- Apples, pears, watermelon
- Cauliflower, mushrooms
- Honey, high-fructose corn syrup
- Milk, yogurt, soft cheeses

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the low FODMAP elimination phase last?
The elimination phase typically lasts 2-6 weeks. During this time, you reduce high-FODMAP foods and pay attention to how your body responds. The goal is to identify your personal triggers, not to stay in elimination forever.
Can I still eat garlic on a low FODMAP diet?
FODMAPs are water-soluble, not fat-soluble. You can use garlic-infused oil (strain out the garlic cloves) to get the flavor without the FODMAPs. Asafoetida (hing) and the green parts of spring onions are also great alternatives.
Is low FODMAP the same as gluten-free?
No. While wheat is high in FODMAPs (due to fructans, not gluten), many gluten-free grains like rice, quinoa, and oats are naturally low FODMAP. The restriction is about the type of carbohydrate, not the protein.
