High FODMAP (Avoid)High in fructans + GOS

Is farro low FODMAP?

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

Farro is an ancient wheat, so it carries the same fructans (plus GOS) that make regular wheat high FODMAP. Pearled and whole farro are both high. Save it for reintroduction, and use rice or quinoa as the everyday swap.
