High FODMAP
Fruit Salad
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Fruit salad combines multiple varieties that frequently include high-FODMAP ingredients in unpredictable ratios. Mixing apples, pears, and melon creates cumulative sugar loads that exceed tolerance quickly. Standard bowls deliver concentrated fermentable carbohydrates that trigger digestive symptoms. Careful component selection is essential for safe preparation.

Homemade fruit salad using only tested berries, grapes, and citrus segments remains safely low. Verify commercial mixes avoid dried fruit or pear additions during preparation. Reduce portion size drastically when combining with yogurt during reintroduction phases. Refrigerate immediately after cutting to prevent enzymatic browning and sugar concentration.
