Is asafoetida low FODMAP?

Yes — Asafoetida is low FODMAP in normal servings and is generally well tolerated by people with IBS.

At a tiny pinch asafoetida is low-FODMAP and gives an onion/garlic-like flavour, making it a popular substitute. Powdered hing is often cut with wheat flour, so coeliacs should choose a gluten-free version (a gluten, not FODMAP, concern at this dose).

Based on published FODMAP research and reviewed reference data. Informational only — not medical advice. Tolerance is individual; verify with a dietitian during the elimination phase.
