Is Beetroot Low FODMAP?

Portion-dependent

Low FODMAP only up to the serving size listed — larger servings stack.

Safe serving

20 g, about 2 slices of pickled beetroot

FODMAP group responsible

  • Fructans — Oligosaccharides. Wheat, onion, garlic. The most common trigger and the hardest to avoid.

Why

Low FODMAP at roughly two slices. Beetroot is often eaten in quantity in salads and juices, and juicing in particular concentrates the fructans well past any sensible portion.
