Great news for gut health: True Biome is officially Low FODMAP Certified™
2 Min read
At Ancient + Brave, we recognize that gut health is complex. The delicate balance of the gut ecosystem is influenced by many factors, including stress, sleep, and our environment.⁺
We also believe that supporting gut balance should be accessible to everyone. That’s why we’re proud to share that True Biome, our science-backed gut health supplement, is now Low FODMAP Certified™ by Monash University.
In this post, we take a closer look at the Low FODMAP diet™ and explain what Low FODMAP Certification™ means for you.
What is the Low FODMAP™ diet?
Developed by Monash University, the term FODMAP refers to a group of carbohydrates that can be challenging for individuals with sensitive digestion to tolerate.⁺
FODMAP is an acronym that stands for:
-
Fermentable
-
Oligosaccharides
-
Disaccharides
-
Monosaccharides
-
And
-
Polyols
According to Monash University, foods such as rye, wheat, onions, beans, and some dairy products – including certain cheeses and yogurts – may contain higher levels of FODMAPs. Some fruits may also contribute.
For individuals sensitive to FODMAP-containing foods, following a Low FODMAP diet under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional may help identify personal food triggers and support digestive comfort.⁺
It’s important to note that a Low FODMAP diet does not treat disease, and a strict Low FODMAP diet should only be followed with professional supervision.
What is Low FODMAP Certification™?
To make it easier for those following a Low FODMAP diet™ to identify suitable foods and supplements, Monash University developed the Low FODMAP Certification™ program.
Used worldwide in over 130 countries, the Monash University Low FODMAP Certification™ indicates that a product has been independently laboratory-tested and shown to contain low levels of FODMAPs when consumed at the recommended serving size.
True Biome: Low FODMAP Certified™ gut support
We’re delighted to share that True Biome is officially Low FODMAP Certified™.
Independent laboratory testing conducted by Monash University confirmed that True Biome contains low levels of FODMAPs when consumed at the recommended serving size of 6g daily.
“At Ancient + Brave, we’re committed to bridging the gap between cutting-edge science and everyday wellbeing. Securing Low FODMAP Certification™ for True Biome is another step toward making gut support more accessible, inclusive, and evidence-based – including for those with sensitive digestion.”
Dr Jenna Macciochi, Director of Science & Innovation, Ancient + Brave
What’s next for True Biome?
Low FODMAP Certification™ is just one of the ways we go above and beyond to create gut health rituals you can trust.
True Biome is also currently patent-pending, reflecting its innovative, ecosystem-focused approach to gut support. Its thoughtfully designed formula supports the gut ecosystem through three key components:⁺
-
PHGG (Partially Hydrolyzed Guar Gum) – a gentle prebiotic fiber that helps nourish beneficial gut bacteria**
-
L-Glutamine – an amino acid that supports the integrity of the gut lining**
-
HK-L-137® (heat-killed Lacticaseibacillus paracasei) – a clinically studied postbiotic ingredient that supports immune function and gut balance**
In addition, we are conducting a True Biome citizen-science trial with our Inner Circle – a community of customers who trial products at home and share their lived experiences.
To date, participants have reported improved digestive comfort and a greater sense of gut ease within weeks of incorporating True Biome into their daily routine.* Independent data analysis is currently underway, and we look forward to sharing verified findings once available.
