Is Magic Spoon Cereal low FODMAP?

FODMAP score

74

High FODMAP

Not low FODMAP. Magic Spoon is sweetened cleanly with allulose and monk fruit, but the recipe adds inulin sourced from chicory root and/or agave — a concentrated fructan fiber that ferments quickly and is a classic trigger for sensitive guts. The milk protein blend also uses whey protein concentrate, which carries residual lactose, unlike a whey isolate.

What's inside

Inulin (chicory root and/or agave)Concentrated fructan fiber added for texture and fiber count; rapidly fermentable and the main FODMAP load here.
Whey protein concentrateConcentrate (unlike isolate) retains some lactose, which stacks on top of the inulin.
AlluloseA rare sugar that is mostly absorbed before reaching the colon; very large amounts can loosen stools for some, but it is not a polyol.
Monk fruit extractNon-fermenting high-intensity sweetener; here it is not blended with erythritol.
Tapioca starchPlain low-FODMAP starch used for the crunch.

📏 One serving is 1 cup (about 40 g) — and this is a cereal people rarely stop at one cup of, so the inulin and lactose load scales with every refill.

Gentler alternatives
