When the capacity to absorb fructose is decreased.
When you have more fructose than can be absorbed by the small intestine.
Here's what it means to my son:
After I eat a small amount of food my stomach feels full. So full that I can't gain weight.
Sometimes I have a belly ache so bad I have "stomach problems" which again, makes me loose weight.
If I eat too much I throw up. My stomach hurts so bad I just puke.
I make the smelliest, stinkiest smelling puffers (hate the f*rt word!) you've ever smelled. I'm embarrassed by this & it grosses my sisters out big time!
I have a belly ache every day. Yes I love sports and I run fast and play hard but at the end of the day my belly hurts.
**If your child has these symptoms & you have no answers perhaps it's fructose***
After years of blood tests this breath test does't hurt- it's worth taking!
