Good question. Heather does not seem to emphasis the problems of fructose malabsorption. Perhaps she is not familiar with the recent research findings that a large percentage of IBS suffers have problems digesting carbohydrates, in particular, lactose and fructose. I have had IBS for 40+ years. Recently I discovered this research. I found that if I removed high fructose fruits, vegetables, honey and of course corn syrup my IBS pain and alternating D/C was reduced by more than 50%. I can now identify other individual triggers. I have known for 20+ years that graham crackers are on my 'do not eat list' I am sure it is because of the corn syrup, honey and/or fat content. Of course it depends on who made them. Too bad - I really enjoyed them with peanut butter!
