Moderate FODMAP Fruits

Is Lychee Moderate FODMAP?

Lychee 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. Smaller portions (about half a serving) are usually tolerated.
