Intoleran Differentiates Gluten and Fructan Intolerances

Thursday, October 6, 2022

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Everyone wants to say that they have a gluten intolerance. However, the dietary professionals at Intoleran have a solid argument that, more often than not, an intolerance to fructans is what is causing symptoms. It's the similarities in foods that contain gluten and fructans that makes the diagnosis difficult.

Key Points: 
  • Gluten is a protein that is found in various cereals, including wheat, barley, rye, and triticale.
  • "There's often a bit of confusion between gluten and fructans," explains Intoleran owner Harmen Treep, "Often eating grain products leads to an upset stomach or other digestional discomforts.
  • This is blamed on gluten, and if someone has celiac disease (meaning they're gluten intolerant), this is likely the culprit.
  • Intoleran products assist the digestive system by helping to properly digest food and, consequently, avoid many of the unpleasant side effects that come from food intolerances.
