Fructose intolerance affects up to 40% of the adult population. Could this be a dietary trigger for you?

If your symptoms feel unpredictable, fructose could be part of the puzzle.
It shows up in foods that are often considered “healthy,” like certain fruits, honey, and everyday sweeteners, which makes it easy to overlook. But when fructose isn’t well absorbed, it can ferment in the gut and lead to gas, bloating, and discomfort. For people with IBS, fructose malabsorption is surprisingly common and can quietly worsen symptoms without being obvious or consistent.

If you’ve ever felt like your reactions don’t quite line up with what you’re eating, this could be the missing link. This article helps you connect the dots so your gut finally starts to make sense—and gives you a clearer path forward.
