The useful answer

Muscovado Sugar and the low FODMAP diet

Muscovado sugar is minimally processed cane sugar retaining high molasses content and dark crystals. The limited refining preserves trace minerals without introducing problematic fermentation triggers. Pure sucrose composition digests predictably without overwhelming intestinal absorption mechanisms. Sensitive individuals can incorporate it into baking with confidence.
