Where these numbers come from

- 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.
