Peanut satay sauce

High FODMAP (Avoid)1 tbsp (20g)

Is peanut satay sauce low FODMAP?

Peanut satay sauce is high FODMAP and best avoided during the elimination phase.

Peanut butter itself is fine to about 2 tbsp, but bottled satay sauce adds garlic and onion, so a normal serve carries fructans on top of the GOS. A homemade peanut sauce on garlic-infused oil, soy and lime keeps a couple of tablespoons safe.

FODMAP subgroups to watch

Peanut satay sauce contains fructans, GOS that can drive SIBO symptoms.

SIBO note

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