Methionine and the Low FODMAP Diet

Methionine is one of the essential amino acids that the human body requires for protein synthesis, metabolism, and various biochemical processes. It is classified as a sulfur-containing amino acid, playing a crucial role in the synthesis of other sulfur-containing molecules. Methionine is naturally present in high concentrations in animal products such as meat, fish, and dairy, but it can also be found in smaller amounts in some plant-based foods. Additionally, synthetic forms of methionine are available and are sometimes used in supplements, particularly for individuals following a vegan diet.
