SIBO-Safe Gaziantep Baklava Guide

Navigating traditional desserts like Gaziantep Baklava with SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) can be challenging, but the mm food app makes it possible to indulge safely. Known for its delicate layers of phyllo dough, nuts, and syrup, authentic Gaziantep Baklava often contains ingredients like honey, refined sugar, or high-FODMAP nuts that may trigger SIBO symptoms. Here’s how the app helps:

1. Ingredient Translation & Analysis: Use the app to instantly translate Turkish menus and identify hidden high-FODMAP ingredients like excess fructose in syrups or lactose in dairy-based toppings.
2. Custom Dietary Filters: Set your SIBO restrictions (e.g., avoiding pistachios, honey, or wheat-based phyllo) to receive AI-curated suggestions for safer alternatives.
3. Local Chef Collaborations: Discover bakeries in Gaziantep offering SIBO-friendly baklava recipes, such as versions made with low-FODMAP nuts (e.g., macadamia) and glucose syrup substitutes.

Pro Tip: Ask chefs about portion sizes—even SIBO-safe ingredients can be problematic in large amounts. With mm food, savor Gaziantep’s iconic dessert without compromising your gut health!
