Low FODMAP Diet: A Fad Worth Following?

Low FODMAP Diet: A Fad Worth Following?

Food and nutrition companies always capitalize on whatever fad diets are currently in fashion to shamelessly promote their products. Science is of secondary concern, if it's a concern at all. For instance, Centrum Silver is running an advertisement that brags about its (utterly worthless) multivitamins being gluten- and GMO-free.

Nestlé wants in on the action, too. This company is playing a TV commercial for ProNourish, a nutritional drink. As one might expect, the company eagerly and unscientifically boasts about the product's lack of gluten and high-fructose corn syrup*. (See upper-left image.) But these platitudes are not what made the commercial interesting.
