I am fructose intolerance-- is sucrose ok?

Question

I have recently found out that I am fructose intolerance. I have to eliminate all fructose in my diet in order for my chronic pain to leave. The dietician gave me a list of foods that I can and can't eat, and sucrose (table sugar) was allowed. However, I was looking on many medical websites, and they said that you should stay away from sucrose. Does anyone know if I can or can't eat it? Thanks!

Answer 1

nope...sucrose is the combination of fructose and glucose at a 1:1 ratio
