Coconut yoghurt on a low FODMAP diet

  • Small amounts of coconut yoghurt are usually fine during elimination, but larger servings move into high FODMAP territory.
  • Avoid pairing it with other moderate or high FODMAP foods in the same meal, which is where stacking matters most.
  • If it bothers you, note it in a food diary and test it again during reintroduction.
