Cabbage is low or high FODMAP depending on serving size. The type of cabbage used will determine the FODMAP rating because different types of cabbage contains different FODMAPs in varying amounts. For example, common cabbage contains sorbitol at a certain portion size, whereas red cabbage contains fructans and GOS. If the label does not specify the type used, limit to 1/2 cup serving. Possible FODMAPs: Sorbitol, GOS, Fructans
