Ingredo.app for IBS and the Low-FODMAP diet
Turn on the Low-FODMAP / IBS profile and Ingredo.app flags high-FODMAP ingredients — like onion, garlic, wheat, and certain sweeteners — as a caution on every food you scan, with the reasoning cited. This is general Low-FODMAP guidance, not Monash-certified testing.
FODMAP tolerance is individual, so nothing here is a hard block — a caution flag means "this commonly triggers IBS symptoms," not "this is unsafe for everyone."
Reintroduction and elimination phases work best with a dietitian; Ingredo.app is a scanning aid, not a replacement for that guidance.
What Ingredo.app flags for a Low-FODMAP profile
Common high-FODMAP ingredients are flagged as a caution; nothing is hard-blocked, since tolerance varies.
Common triggers (caution)
- Onion and garlic (fructans)
- Wheat-based products in large amounts
- High-fructose fruits (apple, mango, honey)
- Polyols: sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol
- Lactose (see also our Lactose profile)
Good match
- Low-FODMAP staples with no flagged ingredients
- Products free of the common trigger list above

Common questions
No — our guidance is general, based on published high-FODMAP ingredient lists, not Monash University's laboratory-tested app. Use it as a screening aid, not a certified rating.
FODMAP tolerance varies a lot between people and even by portion size, so we flag common triggers as a caution rather than an absolute avoid.
