Is GT's Living Foods SYNERGY Raw Kombucha low FODMAP?

FODMAP score

58

Moderate

GT's SYNERGY sits in the moderate zone, like most kombucha: the base is a raw 30-day ferment of tea, cane sugar, kombucha culture, and kiwi juice, and how much fructose survives fermentation varies batch to batch by design. Small servings of plain kombucha generally test low, but a full 16 oz bottle plus flavor additions like mango or guava puree can push residual fructose past comfortable territory. Flavor choice and pour size decide whether this one behaves.

What's inside

Raw kombucha ferment (tea + cane sugar + culture)Fermentation consumes most of the sugar, but a raw, unpasteurized ferment leaves a variable amount of residual fructose in every bottle.
Kiwi juice (base)Kiwifruit is a low-FODMAP fruit and appears in small ferment amounts in the base.
Fruit purees in some flavors (mango, guava, watermelon)Mango and similar purees add excess fructose on top of the ferment — the tropical flavors are the riskiest picks in the lineup.
Live cultures and organic acidsThe probiotic cultures and fermentation acids themselves carry no fermentable-carb load.

📏 A 16 oz bottle is 2 servings; keeping to roughly a half bottle (about 8 oz or less) of a non-tropical flavor keeps the residual-fructose dose in the range most people handle.

Gentler alternatives

GT's SYNERGY Pure or Original, half-bottle pourThe least-flavored bottles skip the fruit purees, so a small serve carries the lowest fructose load in the range.

Brewed iced green or black teaThe tea character without any ferment sugars at all.

Sparkling water with fresh gingerScratches the fizzy, tangy itch with no fermentable carbs.
