The FODMAP diet for travel is hard.
I learned this while I was researching hundreds of products for my Travel and Convenience Snack Guide.

FODMAP Diet for Travel
Click HERE to save this post for later.
The guide hosts almost 200 products, and yet there are less than 30 items which qualified as FODMAP free (no FODMAPs or super low FODMAP).
Of course, you can still bring food along from home to travel with that might make living FODMAP free or super low FODMAP easier.
However, if you are out and about and need to rely on packaged and convenience goods, it’s going to be a lot more challenging.
You’ll even notice that many of the items below aren’t true filling foods, either, but instead beverages, supplements and more.
I get it, darling, traveling with SIBO is hard!
Make sure you bring along your gut healing journal 🙂
Low FODMAP Snacks
- Harmless Harvest, Coffee Coconut Water {Organic Coconut Water, Organic Fair Trade Coffee Extract}
- Harmless Harvest, Original Coconut Water {Organic Coconut Water } (Updated in 2017 note: I included coconut water because I was always okay with it, but not everyone will be. This is why….at any given time, I never drank a substantial amount of it. The way I’d typically drink it would be a splash here and there in smoothies or post workout. Packaged Coconut Water is okay at 150ml or less. It becomes high-FODMAP at 250ml. Fresh Coconut Water is okay up to 163ml, and again, high at 250ml. 250ml is about a cup, give or take. Rarely ever would I drink a cup of it in one sitting. That said, many people do and will, so you need to make the best decision for yourself based on your current SIBO status.)

FODMAPs
FODMAPs are not your thing, and you could not care less about including or nont including them?
That’s okay! The travel guide hosts the following special dietary needs/categories: Organic Certified Gutsy, 5 ingredients or less, gluten free, dairy free, sugar-free, 5g of sugar or less, Paleo, AIP, GAPS, SCD, and Vegan.

Hi there, Thanks for your research on FODMAP friendly snacks to grab and go. From my understanding, coconut water is very high in fodmaps and is something to avoid. Are you certain coconut water should be on your list?
Hi! Thank you so much for this.You are right, mostly, so I am going to update with a little asterisk. I think I included it because I was always okay with it. And I think I was always okay with it because I barely drank any at a time. The way I’d typically drink it would be a splash here and there in smoothies or post workout. Packaged Coconut Water is okay at 150ml or less. It becomes high-FODMAP at 250ml. Fresh Coconut Water is okay up to 163ml, and again, high at 250ml. 250ml is about a cup, give or take. Rarely ever would I drink a cup of it in one sitting. THAT SAID, many people do and will, so I will absolutely update the post. Thanks again! And thanks for stopping by:) xox
I thought Stevia was a no no for gut health?
Hi! Great question. Here are my thoughts. Whenever Stevia is mentioned as an ingredient, monk fruit granulated sugar can also be used. Stevia is far more common to find, but monk fruit is generally regarded as easier on the gut. It has been noted that Stevia may cause side effects such as bloating, nausea, and gas. Monk fruit is 150 – 200 times sweeter than sugar; Stevia 200 – 300 times sweeter. Wherever a sweetener is called for, use what works best for you.
