Is Chickpeas low FODMAP?
Moderate — depends on portion
FODMAP group: GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides)
Serving guidance
Canned, well-rinsed chickpeas at about 1/4 cup are low-FODMAP; larger amounts are high in GOS.
Why
Chickpeas are high in GOS (galacto-oligosaccharides), but canned and rinsed they're much lower than dried-and-boiled, and a small 1/4-cup serving is often tolerated. Hummus is usually higher because of the portion plus garlic.
Low-FODMAP swaps
- Canned, rinsed chickpeas in small portions
- Firm tofu
- Tempeh
