Is chilli low FODMAP?
FODMAP score

Low FODMAP
Yes — Chilli is low FODMAP in normal servings and is generally well tolerated by people with IBS.
Low-FODMAP serving
1 tsp pure chilli / cayenne; 1 fresh red chilli
Pure chilli and cayenne are low-FODMAP, but check blended 'chilli powder' as it often contains garlic and onion. Capsaicin can still irritate sensitive guts.
