High FODMAP
Garlic Hummus
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Traditional garlic hummus blends chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, oil, and fresh garlic into a creamy spread. Chickpeas contribute galacto-oligosaccharides that cause bloating when consumed in concentrated portions. Fresh garlic introduces highly concentrated fructans that remain problematic even after blending. Commercial versions frequently add preservatives, onion powder, or wheat-based stabilizers to standardize texture. Strict portion monitoring or using infused oil ensures safer consumption while preserving intended flavor.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Substitute canned chickpeas with roasted pumpkin seeds and blend with tahini alternatives to reduce galacto-oligosaccharide content. Use garlic-infused oil with the solids removed to replicate traditional flavor without introducing water-soluble triggers. Serve small portions with rice crackers to maintain balanced snacking without overwhelming digestive capacity.
