Are Peaches Low FODMAP?

Updated · Fruit
High FODMAP

Yes. Peaches are high in FODMAPs, including sorbitol.

Main FODMAPs: Sorbitol and other FODMAPs

Why

Peaches belong to the stone fruit family, which is generally high in polyols such as sorbitol. They can also contain other FODMAPs, so even one medium peach can be enough to trigger symptoms in sensitive people. Nectarines, plums, apricots, and cherries are similar.

Good to know

  • Canned peaches and peach juice are also high.
  • Peach flavoring in yogurts and drinks is usually fine, but real fruit pieces are the concern.

Low FODMAP swaps

  • Oranges or mandarins
  • Strawberries or blueberries
  • Grapes in a modest serving
