Flaxseeds a FODMAP??

[Ibsr]

I've just come across this article: eat-real-food-paleodietitia.... Half way down it says that "flax seeds are high FODMAP".

I cannot find this stated anywhere else. Other web pages say it is fine on a FODMAP diet.

Does anyone out there know?

Really hoping the above site has it wrong .

Everything i have seen says it is fine. Monash who developed Fodmap have a lovely recipe using flaxseed oil so i would think it is good.

I use it on my porridge and in casseroles.

I find it too stimulating but not stimulating enough to bring about a bm, so I use it sparingly and use flaxseed oil instead.

Agree with you there PatV, i would definitely recommend the flaxseed oil and use the seeds sparingly.

Thanks guys will try that.

Flax seeds and linseeds are the same thing and Monash says linseeds are low FODMAP and perfectly okay.
