Confused about spelt? Some information says spelt is high FODMAP and yet there are spelt-based products like Wholeberry Folk baking mixes with the FODMAP Friendly logo. Read on... Although spelt contains FODMAPs, the amount present is much less than regular wheat. So, with the Wholeberry cupcakes and cookies, which use spelt flour instead of regular wheat flour, the amount of FODMAPs present per serve has been tested and proven to be low and therefore eligible to use the FODMAP Friendly logo. Other products containing spelt may not be low FODMAP, so the FODMAP Friendly logo is a great guide to let you know those foods that have been tested to be low FODMAP per serve. Please note: Spelt is not gluten free – for people following a gluten free diet, spelt is not suitable. fodmap/the-fodmap-friendly-program/
