Please see my post below with quotes. To answer your specific questions: Everyone with IBS should avoid HFCS and be very careful with juice. Eating fructose containing foods with a soluble fiber base is fine for most IBSers. For those with bloating and D they may want to do FI tests or avoid it all for a while and see how they do. But for average IBSers eating fruit and honey with bread etc is fine. All IBSers should avoid artificial sweeteners and HFCS in my strong opinion and stay safe by trying to eat more natural foods.
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
