FODMAP Friendly products cater up to 15% of the world's population suffering from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms. Plant-based, Clean Label and Soy-Free Certifications by Else were successfully attained prior to the first product launch in the U.S. market.

A FODMAP Friendly product ensures it is safe for those suffering from IBS symptoms. The FODMAP Friendly Certification Trademark is a globally registered Certification Trademark for low FODMAP packaged foods, certifying FODMAP levels in food products; laboratory tested, to be low in FODMAPs.

Approximately 1 in 7 people (or 15%, over 1 billion people globally) suffer IBS type symptoms – Approximately 15 times more people require a diet low in FODMAPs than a gluten-free diet.
"Wanting to support stomach wellness, attaining the FODMAP Certification was important as it gives our customers the assurance that Else products are safe for those with IBS symptoms,"
said Hamutal Yitzhak, CEO and Co-Founder of Else Nutrition. "It aligns with our product DNA of Clean Label, whole food nutrition that parents can feel good about providing to their children." She added.
