Sixty-two consecutively referred patients with irritable bowel syndrome and fructose malabsorption on breath hydrogen testing underwent dietary instruction

This suggests that only people with IBS and fructose intolerance that was confirmed by a breath test were tested and had to eliminate or limit fructose.

So, you can have IBS and eat fructose just fine if you don't have fructose intolerance? Not everyone with IBS has problems with fructose? They are totally separate things?

Also, even though I have tested negative for lactose intolerance, I'm not suppose to eat it. Why is fructose different and we can eat it?

Not trying to stir the pot here....just really confused.

All and any opinions are always appreciated and welcomed!
