Yacon Syrup

Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.

Yacon syrup is extracted from yacon root containing high fructo-oligosaccharide content. The fiber chains pass undigested to the colon where they ferment rapidly. This prebiotic effect triggers significant gas production and osmotic shifts immediately. Yacon syrup remains highly incompatible with IBS management protocols.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes

Replace yacon syrup with verified low-FODMAP brown rice syrup or pure maple blends safely during formulation. Always verify commercial sourcing to ensure complete absence of hidden chicory derivatives. Store it refrigerated to preserve viscosity and prevent microbial growth during storage. Substituting carefully ensures sweetness without triggering osmotic distress.
