Talk to me about fructose - and other sugars if you like

That's interesting ,reux. Googling fructose I heard about Malabsorption for the first time, I had no idea it existed. I was just out to see if I maybe should quit my daily glass of orange juice and try to get better at keeping fresh fruit at work.

We have (had) the woods chock full of blueberries right up until a week ago, and if I'd just been a bit quicker I could have picked the freezer full. I have a couple of litres, stirred with sugar, waiting for winter :-)

I had never heard of it either. We all know about lactose intolerance but fructose was news to me. My poor daughter, I feel so bad for her, but it is manageable. Just a big p.i.t.a.
If you have no problems digesting fructose (which isn't always so obvious, I could tell you all about it but it would be a long long post), then I don't see why moderate amounts of natural sugar wouldn't be just fine in a normal healthy diet.
I think clean, organic, minimally processed food is the way to go. I don't have to worry about reading labels when I'm just eating fruits, veggies, and meat! It's the ice cream that gets me into trouble, lol.
