High FODMAP
Cherry Juice
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Cherry juice removes all fiber while concentrating polyols and excess fructose into a rapidly absorbing liquid. Commercial blends frequently mix cherry with apple or pear to balance tartness. The osmotic effect commonly triggers immediate digestive distress in sensitive individuals. Elimination protocols typically classify concentrated cherry juice as high risk.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Tart cherry concentrate is marketed for sleep benefits but contains significant FODMAP loads. Dilution reduces intensity but does not eliminate problematic polyol compounds. Opt for cherry extract supplements if avoiding FODMAPs while seeking health benefits. Always verify labels for hidden pear or grape juice concentrates.
