Is coconut milk low FODMAP?

Yes, coconut milk can be low FODMAP, but portion size and milk type are critical factors. Canned coconut milk is low FODMAP at a small serving size of 1/4 cup (around 60 grams). Larger servings contain higher amounts of sorbitol, a sugar alcohol that can cause bloating and gas in IBS sufferers.

UHT carton coconut milk (the diluted drinking variety) is low FODMAP up to 1/2 cup (125 ml) per serving. When selecting coconut milk for a low FODMAP diet, choose unsweetened options free from high-FODMAP additives like inulin or high-fructose corn syrup, and adhere to recommended portion limits.
