Fructose Malabsorption – A real problem that deserves attention

Testing for fructose malabsorption is easy and inexpensive

Food allergies are on the rise.  Why the increase has occurred is unclear but understanding your situation is important to maintain good health. That said, people also tend to overestimate the extent of food allergies, according to a 2006 piece in the scientific journal EMBO Reports. “The rates of perception of food allergies are often up to four times greater than the rates of true food allergies, because people confuse allergy with intolerance or even cases of mild food poisoning.”

If you suspect you have a lactose or fructose intolerance, your can administer a breath test to confirm the diagnosis. Why is that important? Self-diagnosis can lead to an unnecessarily restricted diet and inadequate nutrition, especially in children. Our breath tests are accurate, simple to perform and very reasonably priced
