The useful answer

Soy Flour and the low FODMAP diet

Soy flour is a finely milled powder made from defatted or full-fat soybeans. It concentrates moderate fermentable carbohydrates into a highly absorbable form. Large quantities frequently overwhelm digestive capacity and trigger gas production. Careful substitution ratios maintain baking structure while minimizing discomfort.

Preparation & context

What can change the result?

Blending soy flour with low-FODMAP alternatives like rice or tapioca flour naturally dilutes fermentable sugar concentration. Sifting thoroughly before mixing prevents dense pockets that slow digestion and increase bloating potential. Using it primarily for protein fortification in minimal quantities prevents overwhelming intestinal processing capacity. Always store in cool, dry environments to prevent rancidity that degrades quality and increases strain.
