Welcome!
Thank you for visiting FODMAP Essentials. Here you’ll find data on the FODMAP content of popular foods. If you’re tired of being told to just buy the app, you’ve come to the right place.

Hi! I’m Amanda! I like food and suffer from digestive issues. And if you’re reading this, I’m guessing you do too.
I started FODMAP Essentials to document what I’m learning as I adapt to a low FODMAP lifestyle. When I went low FODMAP, there’s one thing I knew for sure: I didn’t want to rely on an app to tell me what to eat. So, I decided to research foods on my own.
My goal is to make FODMAP Essentials the web’s most helpful resource for low FODMAPers. You can check out the about page to learn more about me and my anti-app philosophy.
