Serving size, prep, and portion notes for jam
Is jam low FODMAP, and is it high in sugar triggers? Jam is fruit boiled down with sugar into a spread, and that concentration is the whole story. It carries a moderate excess-fructose and FODMAP load, borderline salicylates carried over from the fruit, and refined sugar on top. Which fruit the jam is made from matters as much as the sugar.
Watch for
Moderate excess-fructose and FODMAP load: cooking fruit down into jam concentrates its sugars, so a thick spread adds up fast for a sensitive gut / Borderline salicylates carried over from the fruit, worth noting if you react to aspirin or other salicylate-rich foods / Some commercial jams use sulfite preservatives, more common in pale or dried-fruit spreads, a separate trigger for sulfite-sensitive people / It is refined added sugar, so it rates as pro-inflammatory and does not fit DASH or Mediterranean patterns
