What to know about broad beans
Broad beans are the fresh podded bean of British and Mediterranean cooking, the ones you pod from the fuzzy jacket and often double-pod again to slip off the grey skin. Culinary care aside, they are one of the highest-FODMAP legumes there is: top-of-scale for total FODMAPs, high in fructans and highest for galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS). That double load of two fermentable fibres is why even a small serving of fresh broad beans can bloat a sensitive gut.
Watch for
- Highest galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) rating and high in fructans, two FODMAPs at once, so broad beans are among the gassiest legumes for a sensitive gut
- Top-of-scale for total FODMAPs; portion size matters and there is little tolerated serving for IBS
- Moderately high in lectins, so broad beans should be cooked well rather than eaten raw
- Poor for SIBO management given the combined fructan and GOS fermentation
