\nconsidered FODMAPs. A FODMAP stands for Fermentable Oligo-Di-Monosaccharides and Polyols. FODMAPs are
\nosmotic (means they pull water into the intestinal tract), may not be digested or absorbed well and could be
\nfermented upon by bacteria in the intestinal tract when eaten in excess. Symptoms of gas, bloating, cramping and\/or
\ndiarrhea may occur in those who could be sensitive to the effects of FODMAPs. A low FODMAP diet may help reduce
\nsymptoms, which will limit foods high in fructose, lactose, fructans, galactans, and polyols.<\/p>\n
\nhas potential use in those with similar symptoms arising from other digestive disorders such as inflammatory bowel
\ndisease. This diet will also limit fiber as some high fiber foods also have high amounts of FODMAPs. (Fiber is a
\ncomponent of complex carbohydrates that the body cannot digest, found in plant based foods such as beans, fruits,
\nvegetables, whole grains, etc)<\/p>\n\n\n
