Extra Tips
* Fructose & sorbitol may be found in some medications
* Inulin and Fructo-oligo-saccharides (FOS), both sources of fructans, are sometimes added to foods such as yoghurt.
* Unless contra-indicated, adding a small amount of glucose powder when cooking high fructose fruits, can assist fructose absorption.
Finding Tolerance Level
* Fructose tolerance is dose-dependent, and small quantities may not cause symptoms.
* After an initial low fructose diet for 4-6 weeks, high fructose foods may be slowly re-introduced to find tolerance level.
* As fructose can take up to 3 days to pass through the digestive tract, start by trying a small amount of a "problem food" every four days. If this is OK, try having it more frequently, then build up the quantity. Cut back again if symptoms start to recur.
