FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, And Polyols. These are short-chain carbohydrates that can be poorly absorbed in the small intestine, leading to digestive symptoms like bloating, gas, and abdominal pain. A low FODMAP diet restricts these types of carbohydrates to improve gut health and reduce uncomfortable symptoms.
Conditions that May Benefit from a Low FODMAP Diet
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Functional Bowel Disorders
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
Post-Infectious IBS
Indigestion
