Crystallized Fruit

Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.

Crystallized fruit undergoes intensive syrup processing that replaces natural moisture with concentrated sugar coatings. Commercial producers frequently use glucose-fructose syrups that dramatically elevate FODMAP density. The preserved texture delivers rapid carbohydrate loads that bypass normal digestive buffering. IBS management requires strict avoidance during elimination phases.

sticky_note_2 Clinical Notes

Homemade crystallized fruit can utilize glucose-only syrups to avoid excess fructose complications. Rinse thoroughly before consumption to remove surface crystallized sugar layers. Substitute with naturally dried unsweetened mango slices for safer tropical snacking. Track reactions carefully as commercial processing methods vary widely between manufacturers.
