Breakdown for 30 g
Is pear (dried) low FODMAP?
Lactose, mannitol, GOS and fructans remain green at the listed amount. A single red comparison does not tell us the rating of each possible smaller serving. Piece sizes also differ, so 'one piece' is not an established low-FODMAP quantity from this check.
Pear (Dried) and IBS: what to know
Dried pear may be one component of a fruit-and-nut mixture, where its quantity can be hard to identify. Keep the product and portion in your food record if you are discussing it with a dietitian. Neither this ingredient result nor a marketing claim on a snack bag assesses every ingredient in the mix.
Gut-friendly ways to eat pear (dried)
Read the pack for dried pear and other added fruits before assuming a mixture matches a single food. Compare raw nashi pear as a separate preparation with its own very small green reference. Dried apple is also a distinct entry and includes a moderate fructan result in addition to its high groups.
Frequently asked questions
Can I halve the serving and label it green?
No. A smaller quantity may have a different profile, but the inspected entry does not verify that proposed portion.
Are fructans high in dried pear at 30 g?
Fructans are green in the checked panel. Fructose and sorbitol account for its high rating.
Does this result apply to pear juice or purée?
Those are different preparations. This guide covers the dried pieces named in the source.
