Breakdown for 1 apple
Is apple (pink, unpeeled, raw) low FODMAP?
The moderate panel shows amber fructose but green sorbitol. At the 200 g reference, both fructose and sorbitol are red. The remaining four groups stay green. The source's approximate fractions are one-eighth of a medium apple at 20 g and one-fifth at 31 g.
Apple (pink, unpeeled, raw) and IBS: what to know
When planning a fruit topping, measure the actual piece rather than counting slices of unknown thickness. The small green and amber references are close enough that adding another slice can meaningfully change the amount recorded. Keep the variety and skin-on preparation in your notes when comparing meals.
Gut-friendly ways to eat apple (pink, unpeeled, raw)
Wash and cut the apple, leaving the peel on the portion you weigh. If your recipe requires peeling, use peeled pink apple and its separate 23 g green reference. For unpeeled Granny Smith, the checked moderate portion involves sorbitol instead; do not merge the two varieties into a generic apple threshold.
Frequently asked questions
Can I simply cut any apple into eight equal pieces?
Fruit size varies and the listed fraction is approximate. Use the weight to match the checked serving more closely.
Does peeling make a whole pink apple low FODMAP?
No. The separate peeled entry also has a high medium-apple reference. Its small green portion does not justify a whole-fruit claim.
Are dried pink apple slices covered here?
This entry is raw and unpeeled. Use the separate dried apple guide for the inspected dried preparation.
