Have you ever read where mannitol is similar to sorbitol or fuctose. I know I have been reading that sorbitol is harmful to some people who have fructose intolerance just like fructose. Anyway, just wondered if you have encountered BEano and mannitol and what the findings are? Thank again for help.

They are both difficult sugars to digest. However, one beano tablet weighs about 1/3 gram. Mannitol is the second last ingredient on the list of ingredients. There is very little mannitol in beano. Similarly, there is sorbitol in Gas-X. One of these pills weighs less than a beano tablet. Again there is not enough sorbitol in a Gas-X pill to worry about. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Syl-mannitol?       #296625 - 01/15/07 09:41 AM Edit Reply Quote feelinggood Reged: 09/11/06 Posts: 745 Thank you - have you used Beano?

I am fairly sure that peaches are one of the fruits you will have to try and see if it is a problem for you. -------------------- STABLE: ♂, IBS-D 50+ years - Science of IBS The FODMAP Approach to Managing IBS Symptoms Evidence-based Dietary Management of Functional GI Symptoms: The FODMAP Approach FODMAP Chart & Cheatsheet The Role of Food & Dietary Intervention in IBS Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | >> (show all)
