Prepare These 27 Low FODMAP Recipes To Relieve Digestive Upset

We talk about short-chain carbohydrates and related alcohols poorly absorbed in the small intestine.

The long list of foods to avoid on a low-FODMAP diet can seem overwhelming, leaving people wondering what is safe to eat.

Do not worry; With these 27 low-FODMAP recipes, you can put together a healthy, low-FODMAP diet plan to begin your journey to freedom from digestive discomfort.

The term FODMAP means fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols.

If all of this sounds confusing to you, they are short-chain carbohydrates and sugar alcohols that the human body does not absorb well.

Malabsorption of these sugars and carbohydrates has been linked to uncomfortable abdominal pain and bloating.

This connection between FODMAPs and digestive distress has led patients with IBS, SIBO, and other digestive disorders to adopt a low-FODMAP diet to help relieve symptoms.

 

These are the 27 low-FODMAP recipes recommended for the relief of digestive discomfort.

Note: We recommend using natural sweeteners like raw honey, real maple syrup, or organic coconut sugar to get the most nutrients out of these recipes.

Also, ditch conventional cow’s milk and use organic coconut milk, almond milk, goat milk, or cheese, replace table salt with sea salt, and replace canola and vegetable oil with coconut oil, olive oil, or ghee.

Replace olive oil with avocado oil when cooking at high heat.

Quinoa is a nutrient-dense, protein-rich food that replaces oatmeal in this porridge recipe. One of my favorite things about this easy breakfast recipe is that you probably already have all the ingredients in your pantry.
