Registered Dietitian's Notes

Amounts allowed in the low FODMAP diet:
  • raspberries - 60g (fructans)
  • blueberry - 40g (fructans).
  • strawberries do not have FODMAPs.

Safe portion in the low FODMAP diet
all pancakes are safe in terms of FODMAP.
Regarding fruits, there may be an accumulation of FODMAPs, since both blueberries and raspberries have the same FODMAP (fructans). To avoid the accumulation of fructans from raspberries and blueberries, the safe dose is 1/3 of their quantity, therefore, you should not eat more than 1/3 of the fruit.
