Is Kombucha Moderate FODMAP?
Only in small portions. Kombucha is moderate FODMAP (excess fructose).
Kombucha is moderate FODMAP - tolerated by some at small portions and trigger-prone for others. The trigger is excess fructose, a simple sugar that draws water into the gut and feeds gas-producing bacteria. A small (150ml) glass typically stays in the safe zone.
