Wheat sourdough bread: FODMAP, histamine, lactose and gluten

Here is what the scientific sources say about Wheat sourdough bread for people managing sensitivities to FODMAP, histamine, gluten and lactose.

FODMAP

The FODMAP content of Wheat sourdough bread is classified as moderate.

Sources: Pejcz E, Spychaj R, Gil Z. Technological Methods for Reducing the Content of Fructan in Wheat Bread. Foods. 2019;8(12):663 (metodo a lievito madre con fermentazione prolungata: fruttani ridotti da 0.57-0.58 a 0.23-0.25 g/100g, circa -56/-60% rispetto al pane standard); Pejcz E, Lachowicz-Wiśniewska S, Nowicka P, et al. Enhancing Bread's Benefits: Investigating the Influence of Boosted Native Sourdough on FODMAP Modulation and Antioxidant Potential in Wheat Bread. Foods. 2023;12(19):3552 (lievito madre nativo, fermentazione 72h: fruttani 0.10 g/100g vs 0.22 g/100g del controllo a lievito di birra).

Histamine

The histamine/biogenic amine content of Wheat sourdough bread is considered low (0-3 intensity scale).

Sources: Mannino G, Cirlincione F, Gaglio R, et al. Preliminary Investigation of Biogenic Amines in Type I Sourdoughs Produced at Home and Bakery Level. Toxins (Basel). 2022;14(5):293, https://doi.org/10.3390/toxins14050293

Lactose and gluten

Lactose is not naturally present in Wheat sourdough bread. Gluten is naturally present in Wheat sourdough bread.

Notes

categoria: Con glutine (low FODMAP) | La fermentazione a lievito madre riduce il contenuto di fruttani rispetto al pane a sola lievitazione con lievito di birra, senza azzerarlo. Sull'istamina: nello studio di Mannino et al. 2022 è stata rilevata solo in un campione di lievito madre casalingo (~6.7 mg/kg), assente nei campioni di livello professionale/panificio; livelli quindi generalmente bassi/in traccia.
