Quote: There was an interesting study published recently that I discussed in this posting. They found that fructose malabsorption occured with about equal amounts (48-55%) in IBS-C & IBS-D and about twice as often compared to IBS-A (24%).
That is weird and unreliable. Why would it matter if you had A since it is both C and D? I can't trust a test like that.
Quote: IBSers with fructose malabsorption probably didn't hang around the board long because the EFI diet wasn't working for them. Image how many more might have stayed if fructose malabsorption in IBSers had be accomodated in the EFI diet
That could be true.
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
