What is fructose? Fructose is the fruit sugar contained in fruit and many types of vegetables. It is a single sugar (monosaccharide). Yet, fructose is also a component of sucrose (normal household sugar). This is a double sugar, in which fructose is bound to the single sugar glucose. Because only single sugars can be absorbed in the small intestine and utilized by the body, ingested sucrose is broken down by one of the body’s enzymes in the small intestine into fructose and glucose. Among the sugars, fructose has the highest sweetening power and is therefore often used as a sweetener in processed foods, so that many foods unexpectedly contain fructose. High Fructose Corn Syrup is a mixture of approx. 50% Fructose and 50 % Glucose.
Fructaid is designed for people who have difficulty digesting sugary foods and drinks—known as fructose intolerance or fructose malabsorption. Our Fructaid capsules are lactose-free, gluten-free, and do not contain any material of animal origin. Therefore, they are suitable for vegans and vegetarians. In a nutshell, Fructaid is a microbial-based enzyme that turns fructose into glucose (grape sugar). The glucose isomerase enzyme is not absorbed from the small intestine and does not affect the body.
Directions: Take 1 – 4 capsules with liquid a few minutes before eating foods and drinks that contain fructose, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), or sucrose. Alternatively, if you have problems swallowing capsules, and for children under 6 years of age or who cannot safely swallow capsules, you can open the capsules and take the contents unchewed with liquid.
