Hi, I know to avoid High Fructose Corn Syrup.
However, I made a boo boo.
I always buy Applesauce to mix with Oat Bran.
The last few days, since last Thursday, I noticed the Applesauce tasted different, better.
I also noticed I had D, which I never have, and overall stability is way lower than normal.
I normally have three cups of Applesauce a day.
I was just now going to get some more of it, when I looked at the ingedients.
I mistakenly bought the regular not the Natural kind, they both look so close on the outside.
I wanted to know, given the frequency I have it, and how I have done so for the last several days, could this be why I have felt much worse and had D, can High Fructose Corn Syrup or Applesauce that is not the natural brand make this big an impact, thanks.

I'm not sure your saying the brand you bought did have HFCS or just wasn't the natural. But if it has HFCS and I ate that much of it I'd definitely have D and be unstable for a few days.

Both HFCS and applesauce can give fructose sensitive individuals D. Apples and apple juice contain a high amount of fructose. A medium apple without the skin contains about 1 g sucrose, 4 g glucose and 8.0 g fructose ( USDA National Nutrient Database ). The amount also varies with the variety. It could be that the variety of apples that are being used for the applesauce have a higher amount of fructose than usual too. See message for more information.

I shouldn't have read this. I brought an apple for lunch. These types of posts scare me from food. Apples are allowed on this diet, aren't they? Does anyone else eat apples and do okay? I think it's time to stop reading these posts. I'm more food phobic than ever.

I have IBS-D. I eat a medium-size apple with skin nearly every day. It's one of the few fruits that I can tolerate.

Wow...with skin...I'm impressed!  Thank you so much for replying Karen. Does it matter what kind of apple it is? Do you take a specific SFS beforehand?
I'm eating lunch right now and trying to decide about this apple that is starring at me! It's either an apple, an orange, or applesauce. I need to have one of them!
Thanks again.

I ate an orange. Wish me luck! It seemed less scary than the apple. It has low fructose....but it is acidic!

Jordy,
I eat apples fairly often, too, with no problems. I'm trying to incorporate the skin part as much as I can! I typically peel about half of the apple before I cut it up now rather than peeling the whole thing. But I cut it into very skinny slices. Just try it! I'd be way more afraid of an orange than an apple.
