High FODMAP
Dried Fig
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Dried figs concentrate fructans and excess fructose into intensely sweet, dense pieces that deliver rapid sugar loads. The dehydration process removes moisture that normally dilutes fermentable carbohydrate density. Standard servings quickly exceed tolerance thresholds and trigger digestive distress. Careful tracking ensures accurate reintroduction if needed.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Sulfur-free dried figs retain identical FODMAP profiles but avoid potential preservative irritation. Chop into microscopic pieces during testing phases to control fructan exposure. Substitute with low-FODMAP prune alternatives only during strict reintroduction monitoring. Store refrigerated to prevent moisture absorption and mold development in sweet environments.
