Pea Flour and the low FODMAP diet
Pea flour consists of finely ground dried yellow or green split peas. The milling process concentrates moderate fermentable carbohydrates into a highly absorbable form. Large quantities frequently overwhelm intestinal capacity and trigger prolonged gas production. Careful substitution ratios maintain recipe structure while minimizing digestive risk.

Portion size can change a FODMAP result. Treat this as the context for the range—not a personal tolerance guarantee.
What can change the result?
Blending pea flour with low-FODMAP alternatives like rice or potato flour naturally dilutes fermentable sugar concentration. Sifting thoroughly before mixing prevents dense pockets that slow digestion and increase bloating potential. Using it primarily for moisture retention in savory crepes minimizes direct carbohydrate exposure per serving. Always store in moisture-proof containers to prevent clumping that compromises texture and increases strain.
