High FODMAP
Mango
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Mangoes contain significant excess fructose that frequently exceeds low-FODMAP thresholds quickly. The intense sweetness delivers concentrated carbohydrate loads that rapidly absorb into the digestive tract. Even small portions can trigger notable symptoms in sensitive individuals. Careful portion tracking is essential during elimination phases.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Green unripe mango contains significantly lower fructose but remains high in resistant starch that can cause distress. Frozen mango chunks retain identical sugar profiles and should be portioned carefully before thawing. Substitute with low-FODMAP papaya or kiwi for similar tropical flavor experiences. Store unripe mangoes at room temperature until softened to control sugar conversion timing.
