Is Fructose Low FODMAP?
AvoidNo. Fructose, a monosaccharide, is high FODMAP at a normal serving size. However, if you see fructose listed after glucose on an ingredient label, the FODMAP load is considered low - with one exception: If you see "glucose-fructose" on a Canadian food product, consider it high FODMAP.
Fructose and the Low FODMAP Diet
Fructose is a simple sugar naturally occurring in many fruits, vegetables, and honey. It is a monosaccharide, which is a basic sugar unit that the body uses for energy. In the food industry, fructose is often used as a sweetener in processed foods and beverages.
