Serving size, prep, and portion notes for spaghetti
A plate of spaghetti is a double hit for a lot of people: it contains gluten and it is rated high in fructans, the wheat FODMAP that ferments in the gut. That is why pasta so often causes bloating and heaviness a couple of hours after dinner even when the sauce is simple. Because portions are usually large, the fructan and gluten load adds up fast, and it also rates poorly for SIBO.
Watch for
Made from wheat semolina, so it contains gluten and is off-limits for celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity / Rated high in fructans, the FODMAP behind the classic post-pasta bloat and gas / Rated poorly for SIBO, since the fermentable carbs feed bacterial overgrowth / Eaten in big portions, which multiplies the fructan and gluten load compared with a small side of wheat
