Portion-dependent
Low FODMAP only up to the serving size listed — larger servings stack.
Safe serving
1/2 cup (46 g) canned and drained
FODMAP group responsible
- GOS — Oligosaccharides. Galacto-oligosaccharides — legumes, pulses and some nuts.
Why
Canned lentils are low FODMAP at half a cup drained, which is more generous than chickpeas. Home-boiled dried lentils are substantially higher for the same reason — the GOS stay in the pot rather than in a can you drain.
