Ep 26 - Can't eat mushrooms, cauliflower or sweet potato? - mannitol reactions in IBS

Season 1 Episode 26 Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description

This episode is part of my FODMAP mini-series looking at how to handle a negative reaction to the FODMAP diet reintroduction phase. Listen to them all.

Listen to hear how to retest after a positive FODMAP reaction to a challenge. I also share HOW mannitol will affect your gut.

Foods turn to moderate or high FODMAP for mannitol at these levels:

  • Butternut squash – 60g (also high in GOS)
  • Cauliflower – 75g
  • Mange tout – 25g  (these are also high in fructans)
  • Sweet potato – 75g
  • Sauerkraut – 30g
  • Mushrooms - button – 10g , portobello – 15g, Shitake – 15g
  • Food additive - E-421

If one of the high mannitol foods has affected you, you can retest this FODMAP with a different food.
