Guacamole

High FODMAP (Avoid)2 tbsp (40g)

Is guacamole low FODMAP?

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

Avocado itself is fine to about 3 tbsp, but classic guacamole adds onion and garlic, so a normal scoop stacks fructans on top of the avocado polyol. A homemade version with spring-onion greens and garlic-infused oil keeps a 2 tbsp serve safe.

FODMAP subgroups to watch

Guacamole contains fructans, sorbitol that can drive SIBO symptoms.

SIBO note

Watch this one for ISO (hydrogen sulfide overproduction). Guacamole contains sulfur compounds, and ISO patterns can be more sensitive to these, especially in larger servings.
