They are commonly known
as raffinose (1 galactosyl unit), stachyose (2 galactosyl units), and verbascose (3 galactosyl units).
Instead, oligosaccharides such
as raffinose and stachyose are broken down by bacterial fermentation in the intestines [13].

Bacteria in your colon ferment
raffinose and produce methane, which you may experience
as smelly, bloat - causing gas.
Whole grains such
as wheat and oats contain fiber,
raffinose, and starch.
This is a signature FODMAP of green vegetables
as opposed to fruits;
raffinose is found in beans, cabbage, brussel sprouts, broccoli, asparagus, whole grains, and other vegetables.
By fermenting the
raffinose the bacteria produces gases such
as carbon dioxide, methane and hydrogen, thus causing some of the gas from FODMAPs.
