Topic: Fructose malabsorption



  
 effects of fructose
To understand this, it might be easier to think of the condition as "fructose intolerance," or "fructose malabsorption" rather than an allergy.
In this study, fructose allergy was assessed using a breath test.
And even if you prove to be allergy free, there are numerous other reasons to limit your fructose intake, particularly from processed foods.

The complete mechanism of fructose absorption in the human intestine is not understood.
When fructose is given alone in solution, 40-80% of subjects have malabsorption, and some subjects can absorb less than 15g fructose.
However, if fructose is given in combination with glucose or starch, fructose is completely absorbed, even in subjects who malabsorb fructose alone (71).

Fructose is readily absorbed and rapidly metabolized by the liver.
However, as mentioned, the beneficial effects do not continue with chronic fructose utilization.
The exposure of the liver to such large quantities of fructose leads to rapid stimulation of lipogenesis and TG accumulation, which in turn contributes to reduced insulin sensitivity and hepatic insulin resistance/glucose intolerance.

"One study suggested that fructose malabsorption might be fairly common, but that the majority of people show no symptoms," Schafer said.

With fructose-1-phosphate aldolase deficiency, hypoglycemia is experienced after fructose ingestion, whereas in fructose-1,6-diphosphate deficiency, acidosis and hypoglycemia are experienced during caloric deprivation, in fasting or during intercurrent illness.
This condition initiates severe toxic symptoms following ingestion of fructose.
Chronic ingestion of fructose during infancy may also result in clinical findings such as failure to thrive, hepatomegaly, and jaundice, which ultimately leads to hepatic and/or renal failure and death.

 Pediatrics for Parents: Fructose intolerance
One way to determine if a person has fructose malabsorption is to measure the amount of hydrogen in his breath after consuming fructose containing food.
"When given levels of fructose commonly consumed in the Western diet, a significant number of our subjects had both objective and subjective evidence of fructose malabsorption, meaning that the breath analysis showed hydrogen in excess of 20 parts per million, and they had symptoms like gas and diarrhea," said Paul Beyer, the lead researcher.
Another approach is for his doctor to perform the breath hydrogen test.

This sugar is the main sweetener used in Western diets, say a group of researchers at the University of Kansas Medical Center, but some people lack the ability to absorb fructose properly.

The authors point out, however, that sorbitol may be of greater importance in malabsorption of other fruit juices, especially pear and prune juices, which have high sorbitol concentrations.
Apple juice can promote diarrhea in young children; malabsorption of the carbohydrates in apple juice is probably responsible, but the relative importance of sorbitol and fructose is unclear.
Sorbitol did not show an additive effect on breath hydrogen excretion after the ingestion of fructose.
