Good to know
Eggs contain no FODMAPs at all, which makes them one of the most useful protein foods on the diet. Boiled, scrambled, poached or baked, they fit into breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Watch what you cook them with. Omelets with onion, quiche with a wheat crust or creamy sauces with regular milk can add FODMAPs that the eggs themselves don't have.
