Banana Chips (Dried) and IBS: what to know

For a snack mix, identify both the banana-chip quantity and the other foods in your helping. The small separation between the green and amber references means a loose handful is a poor way to reproduce the checked amount. The chip count is an approximation attached to the weight.

Gut-friendly ways to eat banana chips (dried)

Measure chips before adding them to cereal or packing a snack portion. Read the label for coatings, added ingredients and the type of banana product. Firm sugar banana and ripe sugar banana describe fresh fruit and cannot provide a dried-chip conversion.
