In one of the recent papers on the dietary management of fructose malabsorption the authors recommend restricting fructans consumption to about 10-20 grams/day. A 65 gram slice of white bread contains about 2 grams. I try to keep my total fructan intake near the lower end of the range. I ~seem~ to be ok I eat some wheat and I don't worry about gluten.
In summary I restrict my fructan intake I don't try to eliminate them. Others may find that they are more sensitive to fructans than excess fructose and they have to restrict their wheat consumption more than I do. Unfortunately, like many things with IBS you have to figure out your own limits.
