Blackcurrant

High FODMAP (Avoid)High in sorbitol

Is blackcurrant low FODMAP?

Blackcurrant is high FODMAP and best avoided during the elimination phase.

Blackcurrant is high in the polyol sorbitol, so it can be hard on a sensitive gut even in modest amounts. One to set aside during the strict phase, then test your own tolerance later if you like it.
