Fructose is a sugar found naturally in many foods, including honey, wheat, fruits and vegetables. Fructose is present in a single sugar form and also as a chain of fructose sugar units (fructans).   In fructose malabsorption, the normal absorption of fructose is impaired and can cause a variety of unwanted and uncomfortable symptoms. Fructose Malabsorption can be managed by following a strict low FODMAP diet. FODMAPs are molecules that are found in foods and in some people are poorly absorbed. Examples of FODMAPs are fructose, fructans, lactose, polyols and galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS). People who have fructose malabsorption need to avoid excess fructose and fructan containing foods.  The following suppliers can assist.
