Check the links in my signature for a description of how fructose malabsorption fits into the FODMAP approach. Keep in mind that unlike the EFI diet the FODMAP approach does not address issues of known GI stimulants such as alchol, caffeine, insoluble fiber, etc that the EFI diet does address well.
I eat relatively few veggies and those that I do eat must be peeled and cooked until soft. Also, I find that the IF in berries is a problem so I make pulp free berry juice from frozen berries. I use it instead of fruit on oatmeal, etc and in drinks and sauces. It is loaded with vitamins and antioxidants
Pulp free berry juice sounds interesting. Just blend up some frozen berries?
Also, do you (or anyone else) have any other recommendations on veggies/fruits? Here is what I am eating (always after eating soluble fiber):
Fruits: Avocado Blueberries (small qty) Raspberries (small qty) Strawberries (very small qty) Ruby Red Grapefruit Bananas (used to be best option a year ago, then bad, now decent again)
Vegetables: Red Pepper Mushrooms Carrots (boiled)
That's really about it, I think. I even created a list of almost all of the vegetables/fruits out there and then started going through one by one for which ones are problems with fructose malabsorption, IBS, and some other food intolerances. Even one or two additional fruit or veggie options would be amazing!
Also, any other comments on the food list, syl? I need a lot of fiber with the large quantity of food.
