Cured Meat and the low FODMAP diet
Cured meats undergo preservation processes that utilize salt, nitrates, and natural fermentation to enhance flavor. The protein matrix remains highly digestible when processed without high-FODMAP additives. Commercial manufacturers occasionally incorporate garlic powder, onion extracts, or sweeteners for consistency. Plain varieties without seasoning blends remain safely low FODMAP.
