20 Low FODMAP Snack Ideas
Every single client asks me the same question when we start working together, “what snacks can I eat?”.
On the low FODMAP diet, limiting common snack foods like almonds, apples, wheat, and honey can lead to a feeling of being stuck on snack ideas. Instead of finding replacements for these snacks, many people tend to omit them, which leads to under-eating and feeling hangry.
To help out, I’ve compiled a list of low FODMAP snacks to avoid feeling overwhelmed and help you on your IBS journey. Here are a few portion sizes and options for fruits, nuts, and nut butters that are referenced in the snacks. All information is sourced from Monash University.
