What is Fructose Malabsorption? What is Fructose Intolerance?

What is Fructose Malabsorption? What are they and how are they different? For those of you who have never heard of this condition, it isn’t as weird as it sounds. Formerly called Dietary Fructose Intolerance—DFI for short—Fructose Malabsorption is the small intestine’s inability to absorb fructose because of deficient

Posted @withregram • @jutoxbarcastleberry Many people have heard that sugar is bad, and think that this must also therefore apply to fruits. But fructose is only harmful in excess amounts, and not when it comes from fruit. It would be incredibly difficult to consume excessive amounts of fructose by eating whole fruits. #naturalsugar #sugar #fructosefree #healthiswealth🌳💰💯 #Jutoxbar https://www.instagram.com/p/CE6qOLDJMl6/?igshid=l2msg1ptce60

Breakfast Bites

The perfect snack for breakfast, after a ride or run, or anytime you need a pickup. Make as a larger bar or smaller bite and enjoy with coffee.

• 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts • 1/4 cup of chopped almonds - roasted • 1/4 cup dried cranberries • Pinch of salt • 120g butter • 1/4 cup white sugar • 1/4 cup rice malt syrup • 1/2 cup golden syrup • 1/4 cup desiccated coconut • 1/2 cup rolled oats - quick oats • 3 cups rice bubbles

The tricky part is chopping the almonds. Cut each individually into 2 or 3 pieces and then carefully chop into the pile.

Heat oven to 160º and prepare a large baking tray with baking paper.

Mix nuts, oats, coconut, salt and cranberries. Make sure to break cranberries apart.

Add butter, rice malt syrup, golden syrup and sugar to small saucepan. Heat on low and keep stirring until it bubbles.

Pour butter mix into dry mix and fold together.

Add rice bubbles and fold together thoroughly. If mix is still too wet, sprinkle in more rice bubbles; a few at a time.

Mould into desired shape and place on baking tray.

Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Do not overcook or they will be crumbly. Be careful, they are still very fragile. Leave in tray for half an hour to cool and firm up. 

Keep in sealed dry container for up to a week.

These Tips Will Help You Dealing Better with Fructose Malabsorption

Add glucose to improve the absorption of fructose

As mentioned under Facts and Symptoms, glucose acts as a piggyback transport for fructose. This means that you can occasionally add glucose, such as dextrose, to high fructose foods. If you can’t resist anymore. But please keep in mind, that you consume a lot more sugar than is ideal that way. And this is for sure not healthy. So please do it only on occasion.

Consume fructose on a full stomach, after meals

By doing that, fructose is released from the stomach slower and delivered to the small bowel over a longer period. This improves the absorption of fructose.

Make a pause of at least 2-3 hours between fructose-containing foods

This is important, as your body cannot handle large amounts of fructose properly at the same time.

How to reduce Fructose Malabsorption symptoms by restoring the intestinal flora

Intestinal rehabilitation for getting rid of abnormal bacterial colonization is a further step towards improved symptoms. The low fructose diet is an essential part of that process, but you can further support that process by adding special supplements (e.g. psyllium husk powder) to your daily intake. I usually drink a glass of water with half a teaspoon of psyllium husks before breakfast. And this further reduced my symptoms of Fructose Malabsorption in the long-term.

However, intestinal rehabilitation programs should only be done after consulting a medical professional.
