Low FODMAP Resources
If you’re new to the low FODMAP diet it can be quite overwhelming trying to find accurate information or useful resources to help support your gut health journey. We’ve put together a list of some wonderful resources including apps, websites and social accounts so that you can learn more about the low FODMAP diet.
Learn
Monash University low FODMAP website
The single most useful resource if you’re looking to learn more about the Low FODMAP diet is the Monash University low FODMAP website. Monash University researchers first developed the low FODMAP diet which has helped many people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Their website takes you through what FODMAPs are, how the 3-step diet works as well as including dietitian resources, helpful articles and recipes. Monash University also developed a low FODMAP diet app where you can walk through the steps and search a range of foods to see if they are low or high FODMAP.

Dietitians directory
The low FODMAP diet can be quite complex and difficult to navigate on your own. It is also not a long term diet or a diet that is focused around weight loss but rather on the management of gastrointestinal symptoms. When beginning this diet it is recommended that you work with a registered dietitian or health professional to ensure your nutritional needs are still being met. Take a look at the FODMAP dietitians directory to find someone in your area.
The FODMAP Challenge
Another option if you’re beginning or struggling with your FODMAP journey is to consider a dietitian run course like the FODMAP challenge. This course includes support to guide you through the 3-steps of the diet, meal plans, recipes and discussion groups.
