Brown Rice Syrup and the low FODMAP diet
Brown rice syrup is produced by culturing cooked rice with enzymes that break starches into glucose polymers. The resulting syrup contains almost entirely maltose and glucose without fructose or polyols. This composition prevents osmotic water shifts and avoids feeding problematic colonic bacteria. It serves as a reliable liquid sweetener for sensitive digestive systems.

What can change the result?
Brown rice syrup behaves like honey in texture but lacks fermentation triggers that disrupt gut balance. Use it to sweeten beverages, glaze pastries, and stabilize candy temperatures safely. Its mild flavor allows other ingredients to shine while providing necessary moisture retention. Store it at room temperature and warm gently before measuring to improve pouring consistency.
