10 vegan and low FODMAP recipes you need to try

On Feb 3, 2018

Nobody should have to give up on being a vegn for medical reasons, but facing the low FODMAP diet is a big ask if you don’t eat meat, fish or dairy.

In case you didn’t know, the low FODMAP diet is used to help relieve the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) sufferers.

It can be pretty restrictive and when you’re avoiding all animal-derived products already, the combination can seem impossible.

Here are 10 recipes to restore your faith in combining vegan and low FODMAP food.
