Is Yellow mustard Low FODMAP?
Low FODMAP
Yellow mustard is low FODMAP at a serving of 1 tsp (5 g) and is generally well tolerated during the elimination phase.
Serving thresholds
| Serving | FODMAP level | Data quality |
|---|---|---|
| 1 tsp (5 g) | Low | Class rule |
Thresholds are per sitting. FODMAP load stacks across a meal — two “low” servings of different foods can still add up.
Good to know
Yellow mustard is mustard seed, vinegar, turmeric and salt — no FODMAP groups at typical hot-dog serves.
Where these numbers come from
- Derivation note: Mustard seed + vinegar + turmeric + salt; mustard seed itself low FODMAP and no other groups present.
- Peer-reviewed paper: Varney J et al. (2017) FODMAPs: food composition, defining cutoff values and international application. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 32(S1):53–61.
Phase derives serving thresholds from published research and food-composition data so every number is auditable.
