FODMAP is not general gut bio advice. rather, it specifically targets people with bad precessing of certain complex fibers. FODMAP lists the foods containing specific types of complex carbohydrates / fibers.

the uses is to avoid undigested complex carbs which tend to ferment and cause digestion issues. usually for people with IBS
