Nutrition: Low FODMAPs Diet

Download PDF, 4MB, PDF

FODMAPs (Fermentable Oligo-saccharides, Di-saccharides, Mono-saccharides and Polyols) are a group of carbohydrates that are not completely absorbed in our intestines.

If you have a condition called Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)*, your body cannot absorb FODMAPs completely. Eating food containing FODMAPs will cause symptoms such as cramping, bloating, diarrhea and / or constipation.

A low FODMAPs diet may help to improve your IBS symptoms. You should plan your low FODMAPs diet with your dietitian to ensure that you are getting enough nutrients. It is important to prevent malnutrition and unwanted weight loss.
