Gut-Friendly Fats on a Low-FODMAP Diet

This article discusses emerging/ongoing science and research. It is intended for general informational purposes only. This content is unrelated to products offered by MariGold and does not contain any representations about the performance of such products.

If you suffer from digestive issues like IBS, bloating, and gas, you’ve likely heard about the low-FODMAP diet. This gut-friendly way of eating limits certain fermentable carbs that can exacerbate gut symptoms in sensitive people. While avoiding high-FODMAP foods is helpful, adding the right gut-supporting nutrients is also key. This is where the healthy fats in MariGold’s Fat Bomb snacks can be a game-changer on the low-FODMAP diet.

Understanding FODMAPs

FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols – the types of carbohydrates that are poorly digested in some people. They draw water into the intestines and get fermented by gut bacteria, creating gas, bloating, and digestive distress. Common high-FODMAP foods to limit include wheat, beans, dairy, some fruits and veggies, and certain sweeteners.

The Power of Good Fats in MariGold Fat Bombs

While FODMAPs are not fats themselves, the healthy fats found in MariGold Fat Bombs are low in FODMAPs and easy to digest for sensitive stomachs. Each bite provides these beneficial ingredients:

Organic Cocoa Butter: A rich source of satiating fats and antioxidants that doesn’t cause gut irritation.

Organic Grass-Fed Ghee: Clarified butter containing gut-nourishing butyrate to reduce inflammation if tolerated.

Grass-Fed Collagen Peptides: Delivering amino acids that support gut lining integrity and health.

Organic Coconut: High in metabolism-boosting MCTs that are easily digested and provide anti-microbial benefits.

Blanched Almond Meal/Almonds: A low-FODMAP nut providing fiber, protein, and healthy unsaturated fats.

MariGold Fat Bombs are also free of high-FODMAP ingredients like high-fructose syrups, dairy proteins, and gluten – making them low-FODMAP friendly.
