Savor Portugal Safely: Your Guide to SIBO-Friendly Tascas
Dreaming of authentic Portuguese tascas but worried about SIBO triggers? These bustling taverns brim with flavor, yet navigating garlic-laden dishes and fermented foods can feel daunting. With mm food, you can relish Lisbon’s culinary soul without compromising your gut health.
Why Tascas Challenge SIBO Diets
Traditional dishes often feature high-FODMAP ingredients like:
- Garlic and onions in caldo verde soup
- Wheat-based breads (pão) and pastries
- Legumes in feijoada (bean stew)
- Lactose-rich cheeses and creams
Even asking about ingredients is tough when menus are solely in Portuguese. This is where mm food transforms your experience.
