Thanks! However, it says "Camomile and fennel tea have fructans–boo! BUT, tolerance may vary." It depends on how strong you make the tea and how much one can tolerate.

PS - it would be helpful if you could fix the link as there is an error in the syntax.

Where is the citation for the actual clinical study on this? I can't find anything in pubmed by Monash University related to the blog post at all. There are some fruit/veggie citations by nothing for the teas.

It will have come from a laboratory analysis of fructans in teas done at Monash University. Fennel bulb has been on the high FODMAP list for some time. Fructans are known to be water soluble. The question might have been the amount of fructans are in the fennel seeds and how much gets into solution when they are steeped in hot water. You might send Dr. Shepherd an email and as for clarification. If you get more information please post it. Thanks

Right - I'm looking for the Monash study (mentioned in the Scarlatta blog but not actually properly cited) and can't find it anywhere - not pubmed, not the Monash edu site, etc.

Did they brew tea from fennel bulbs? Seeds? Indian or Mediterranean species? Botanical name?

Right now there is no actual information I can find, just a blog ref with nothing to support it. Without knowing where the info came from I don't actually know what the information is.

On this web page she says "My colleague Patsy Catsos attended the most recent Monash University seminar on the low FODMAP diet and is on her way back to the States as we speak! To say I am excited to speak with Patsy on her return would be an understatement." Later in the New News section she states "Camomile and fennel tea have fructans–boo! BUT, tolerance may vary." Perhaps you could contact Patsy Catsos for more details.

You are absolutely correct that the source and variety of fennel is very important. In their published work Monash is usually careful about identifying the food sources and varieties being analyzed.

Thank you - I'm hoping it hits pubmed.
