On it's own, without the fibre from the plant fructose is as toxic to you as alcohol.<br /><br />The video really explains it well. Although fructose is a natural substance and found in many edible plants, it should never be taken away from the plant, because when it is our bodies cannot digest it so we turn it to fat.<br /><br />Fructose malapsorption is a different kettle of fish. People with fructose malapsorption will most likely feel the effects of fructose as soon as they eat it and they often can't eat it even when it's still in the plant. People (such as myself) who don't have a malabsorption problem are happily munching on fructose laced foods that are not fruits or vegetables and it's causing all manner of problems.<br /><br />Watch the link. It's a real eye opener ;)Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00383196705222432731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889899742375767391.post-33380091397877236832010-01-20T14:38:03.160-08:002010-01-20T14:38:03.160-08:00Doesn't most fruit (and some vegetables) conta...Doesn't most fruit (and some vegetables) contain fructose? Or is it ok in the smaller doses in some fruits? <br /><br />I found this link helpful: http://web.archive.org/web/20050204162723/www.uihc.uiowa.edu/FRUCTOSE/DietBasics.htm<br /><br />(probably explained in the video??)<br /><br />Good luck with it, cutting anything out of our diet isn't fun.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01482664195209326414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5889899742375767391.post-47639347181893454732010-01-18T22:22:13.279-08:002010-01-18T22:22:13.279-08:00lol..I have checked out half of it..not the part t...lol..I have checked out half of it..not the part that told me about fructose or glucose though so will need to watch the rest :p . I was wondering..can you substitute glucose in baking? <br /><br />I will watch the rest tonight when the kids are in bed and then do a little googling myself too :) .
