Hummus

Limit your serving size. Portion control matters here.

Hummus is a creamy dip traditionally made from blended chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, and oil. Commercial versions frequently contain added garlic or onion powders that drastically increase fermentable load. Careful portion management allows enjoyment of chickpea-based spreads without digestive disruption. Homemade recipes using infused oils maintain flavor safely.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes

Replacing traditional garlic cloves with garlic-infused olive oil delivers familiar flavor without introducing problematic sugars. Blending small portions into low-FODMAP yogurt or tahini dilutes fermentable carbohydrates across a larger serving base. Always verify ingredient labels for hidden inulin or high-fructose additives that compound digestive stress. Serving with rice crackers instead of wheat pita keeps the overall meal gentle and balanced.
