High FODMAP
Prune
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Prunes contain significant polyols and excess fructose that frequently exceed tolerance thresholds quickly. The dense sweet flesh masks high sugar concentration that rapidly absorbs into the gut. Even small portions can trigger notable bloating in sensitive individuals. IBS management requires strict avoidance during elimination phases.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes
Dried prunes retain identical FODMPA profiles to fresh plums but concentrate sugars exponentially. Chop finely if testing minimal tolerance during reintroduction to control polyol exposure accurately. Substitute with low-FODMPA chia seed pudding for similar digestive benefits. Store refrigerated in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and stickiness.
