Is Goat's milk Low FODMAP?
Goat's milk is high FODMAP. It's best avoided during the elimination phase.
Serving thresholds
| Serving | FODMAP level | Data quality |
|---|---|---|
| 1 cup (250 ml) | High | Derived from composition |
Thresholds are per sitting. FODMAP load stacks across a meal — two “low” servings of different foods can still add up.
Which FODMAPs are in goat's milk?
During reintroduction, test the group above one at a time — tolerating goat's milk depends on your personal threshold for Lactose, not on the food itself.
Good to know
Goat milk has comparable lactose to cow milk and is high at glass-size serves.
Where these numbers come from
- USDA food composition: USDA FoodData Central — composition database (public domain).
- 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.
