Why Low FODMAP?
FODMAPs are types of carbohydrates that are not absorbed well in the small intestine and can be fermented upon by bacteria in the large intestine. This fermentation process can cause symptoms in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) such as bloating, gas, and pain.
Epicured's Peanut Butter & Chocolate Energy Bites are designed with a low FODMAP ingredient profile, which means they contain fewer ingredients that are likely to ferment and cause discomfort for those sensitive to such components. The recipe is crafted to offer a flavorful and nutritious snack while avoiding common irritants that can upset sensitive digestive systems.
