Breakdown for 1 apple
Is apple (granny smith, peeled, raw) low FODMAP?
Sorbitol is the only amber group at 39 g. At 165 g, both fructose and sorbitol are red, while lactose, mannitol, GOS and fructans remain green. The app labels 26 g approximately one-fifth of a medium apple and 39 g one-third; use the measured weights rather than calculating fractions from the larger fruit.
Apple (Granny Smith, peeled, raw) and IBS: what to know
A few weighed slices and an entire peeled apple represent different references. If using apple as a topping, record the amount you actually eat across the meal, including any extra pieces added while preparing it. The result is for this raw variety, not a cooked apple filling.
Gut-friendly ways to eat apple (granny smith, peeled, raw)
Remove the peel, cut the edible portion and weigh it before adding it to a salad or breakfast bowl. Compare unpeeled Granny Smith if keeping the skin. Peeled pink apple has a different moderate-portion group pattern, so changing variety is not simply a swap of equally sized slices.
