But have you heard of fructose intolerance? If not, you may be surprised to learn that fructose—the primary sugar in honey, fruit juice, and high-fructose corn syrup—can be malabsorbed by all humans.
Yes, fructose consumed in excess amounts can cause digestive trouble for all of us.
As mentioned, up to 40% of adults are estimated to have a particularly limited ability to absorb fructose 2, which can routinely lead to uncomfortable gastrointestinal symptoms two to eight hours after consuming a high-fructose food or drink. This simple sugar has quickly gained attention as a possible trigger for symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and fructose reduction may be a helpful treatment for some.
Since 2006, Frusano® has been developing and marketing food products specially designed for those on low fructose diets. Their extensive product range includes chocolate, spreads, syrups, beverages, candy, cookies and much more. Frusano® does not use refined sugar nor artificial sweeteners nor alditols (e.g. sorbitol) nor, this goes without saying, high-fructose corn syrups (hfcs).
All products are sweetened by fructose-free glucose syrup or pure glucose only: healthy, mild sweetness that results in long-lasting well-being. All our products are extremely low in fructose, sucrose and sorbitol. In addition, most of their products are organic, lactose-free, low FODMAP and gluten-free.
Join us as we discuss the symptoms and solutions to living well with fructose malabsorption and intolerances.
