- Fermentable – foods fermented in large intestines.
- Oligosaccharides – a small chain of sugar molecules.
- Disaccharides – a double sugar molecule.
- Monosaccharides – a single sugar molecule.
- And Polyols – sugar alcohols.
Basically, these sugar molecules escape digestion and get accumulated in the large intestines. These sugar molecules then undergo fermentation and release carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and methane. These gases lead to uneasiness, bloating, belching, and other GI issues.

Hi Payal,
Thank you so much for the menu.
Are we allowed the following foods in low FODMAP diet for SIBO:
-Garlic infused water (some people even claim to have cured their SIBO with eating raw garlic)
– sunflower seeds
-asafoetida (Hing)
-sweet potato
-broccoli
-Manuka honey (there is some scientific research that manuka honey diluted in water can cure SIBO)
– ginger – would this actually act as prebiotic and feed the bacteria (the good bacteria, but even they cause SIBO in excess). Is
Is it better to take fresh ginger or it’s juice 2 hours after meals in order to not feed the bacteria, or would ginger tea would be better?
Thanks in advance for your response.
Hi,
Thanks for reading at Dietburrp. see, what I have understood based on my experience with my patients is these food list are general guideline, and the capacity to digest any food differs in every person. so what you must do is follow the avoid list and maintain notes for each food in doubt .. eat in small quantity and check the body’s acceptance towards that food. i have noticed a lot of my clients can digest garlic and onions well. and even if its in the avoid list , if they can digest it , I give them a measured allowance of these foods in their plans. so its all based on how well the food in doubt suits you.
Thank you for this valued content.
