Green Curry Paste and the low FODMAP diet
Green curry paste blends chilies, herbs, spices, and sometimes shrimp paste into a concentrated flavor base. Pure herbs and peppers contain zero fermentable carbohydrates and remain highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Traditional recipes frequently incorporate lemongrass, galangal, and shallots, which introduce varying fructan loads. Commercial jars often add wheat starch or sugar to stabilize texture and standardize batch consistency. Selecting verified low-FODMAP brands and using measured portions ensures safer consumption.

Portion size can change a FODMAP result. Treat this as the context for the range—not a personal tolerance guarantee.
FODMAP group
Group information helps organize reintroduction challenges and possible stacking.
What can change the result?
Choose brands that explicitly state they are garlic-free and onion-free, and simmer paste thoroughly in coconut milk to dilute intensity. Avoid commercial varieties that list sugar or wheat near the top of the ingredient panel to minimize triggers. Store opened containers in the refrigerator with a thin oil layer on top to preserve vibrant color.
