Today my daughter had hydrogen breath test to check for fructose intolerance and guess what. She came with very high fructose intolerance!!! We had tried every diet but for eliminating fructose. She always had plenty of fructose in some form are the other daily. Is fructose intolerance common in Ulcerative colitis. I heard it in IBS.

Any idea if any supplement can help? Will Fodmap diet help in fructose intolerance? Which foods have to be eliminated at any cost?

I cannot tolerate it!

I never got a test but know from my gut reaction that fruit causes multiple BM's for me. I assume this is IBS. It's is hard to remember not to eat fruit because it takes overnight for the reaction but it never fails.

At first I thought it was pears (which have a laxative element in them) but now I know it's pretty much all fruit, apples, berries, citrus.

Garylouisville thinks DAO can help with histamine intolerance. You might want to give it a try. I'm just staying fruit-free (mostly).

@imagardener2. I see your signature has grape seed extract pill. Do they have fructose in it?

This has been happening long before grape seed extract was added but that is an interesting question. Does the "seed" have fructose in it?

Who is our resident expert for grape seed extract? Is it Gary?

I don't know if I would call myself an expert on this. I had thought about responding to this post but after reading up on fructose intolerance it is a completely different animal than histamine intolerance and kamakya said that a test actually determined the fructose intolerance. I just read the label on my grape seed extract and it doesn't say anything about containing fructose.

I'm not aware of any tests. I can only tolerate fructose in small amounts. Bigger amounts make me sick. I would eliminate them.

As far as I know, Fodmap elimites them too since it's a derived form of SCD. It also eliminates lactose and complex carbs. Correct me if I'm wrong :-)

Fructose intolerance was checked with Hydrogen breath test for fructose intolerance. Will follow low Fodmap diet.

so,since her gut flora is all jacked up and we know this from tests.. why exactly is this being called high fructose intolerance instead of SIBO?

and Im sorry.. but I missed this.. she had this result while on the biocidin protocol?

She is still on biocidin protocol. She had her SIBO test done in May and it came negative. There had been many times, I had seen when she had too much apple and pear she had blood next day. So, I requested her GI to order hydrogen breath test for fructose. Result came as very high fructose intolerance. They gave her 1st cup of some fructose juice, she instantly complained of heavy stomach pain as if someone had punched her stomach very hard.

I have fructose intolerant and i was wondering if someone can hlep me

I have histamine and fructose intolerance. Strict diet, benadryl and grape seed extract have helped my histamine intolerance and allowed me a year (so far) of the stablest remission I have had in more than 40 years. Remission allows me to cheat a little on diet, but I still think I have fructose intolerance. I had a stool test a few years ago that showed pathogenic levels of klebsiella pneumoniae. Fructose feeds these bad bacteria's, which are hard to get rid of, so I think I will always have to eat smart or the klebsiella pneumoniae will take over again.
