What's so special about Fodbods bars?

• 100% natural: we only use wholesome natural ingredients that you recognise and love. No preservatives and nothing artificial. 
• Truly gut friendly: Fodbods protein bars are certified low FODMAP (the only ones in the world). FODMAPs are carbohydrates found in a lot of foods and are the most common cause of IBS symptoms. 
• No sweeteners: our bars are sweetened with organic rice malt syrup. Whilst they do contain some sugar, they're relatively low GI due to the high content of protein and healthy fats. 
• They suit almost every dietary requirement: Plant based, gluten free and kosher certified. 
• Amazing macros: we work closely with dietitians when formulating our bars to ensure they have fantastic macros – perfectly balanced and high in protein. 
• THEY'RE INSANELY DELICIOUS!!!! They're made with real ingredients so they taste like real food – not sickly sweet and strange aftertaste.

What's the FODMAP diet? 

Up to 1 in 5 people suffer from IBS. Most gut issues are caused by FODMAPS = a group of carbohydrates found in lots of foods, like apples, honey, wheat, dates, onion and garlic. The Low FODMAP diet was developed by Monash University and involves identifying which FODMAPs you're intolerant to and eliminating those from your diet. You can read more about it right here!

How should I store Fodbods? 

The bars should be stored in a cool, dry place. If you're lucky to live somewhere tropical and warm, it might be worth storing them in the fridge to maintain their shape and texture. 

Why are my bars oily? 

Fodbods don't contain any additives, preservatives or emulsifiers - just natural wholefood ingredients that we all know and love. Because of this, our bars may sometimes get a little oily, especially if left in a warm environment (like the car). It's all healthy (unsaturated) fat and is obviously fine to consume although some of our friends prefer to wipe it off before enjoying. If you're interested in reading more, we've written a full blog article on this which you can find here.

What allergens should I be aware of when eating Fodbods? 

Fodbods Protein bars contain nuts (either peanuts or almonds, never both) and soy. You should also be aware that they're made in a shared facility that processes Sesame Seeds. Fodbods Buddies bars are allergy friendly (note that they're also made in a shared facility).

Is Soy Protein low FODMAP?

Soy is quite complicated when it comes to FODMAPs. Soybeans contain oligosaccharides, however most of this is removed during the process of making soy protein. The soy protein isolate used in Fodbods has almost negligible amounts oligosaccharides so it's low FODMAP.
