Fructose (fruit sugar)
Fructose, also known as “fruit sugar,” is one of the FODMAPs, a group of fermentable carbohydrates. Fructose is found in fruits, vegetables, honey and processed products such as cherries, melon, apple, pear, dried fruit, asparagus, artichokes, fruit juices, apple syrup, jam, sauces, soft drinks, breakfast cereals and sweets. On food labels, fructose may be listed under various names, including fructose-glucose syrup, corn syrup, fruit juice concentrate, honey, agave syrup and crystalline fructose. It is important to watch out for these names when reading food labels.
Digestion of fructose in the body
Fructose is absorbed into the bloodstream in the small intestine with the help of a transport protein. The digestive enzyme Xylose Isomerase converts free fructose into glucose, ensuring a 1:1 ratio of glucose and fructose, allowing both to be properly absorbed in the small intestine.
