Reply:The fructose in the fruit is probably causing gas and bloating.

Gas formation, flatulence and bloating are all naturally occurring processes, the result of how we digest foods. Most people with gas problems are not actually making excess gas, but they may feel it more easily than others. It is not a sign of a dangerous bowel problem.

Fruits are a common cause of intestinal gas because of their nutrient makeup. When fat is digested, gas can be produced in the small intestine. However, when carbohydrate is digested, gas may be produced in the large intestine through a process called fermentation. Individuals differ in their capacity to metabolize fructose (the main carbohydrate in fruits). If you exceed your body's ability, the excess fructose remains in your large intestine, where it ferments and makes gas. This causes you to feel bloated.



Fruits that are high in fructose include apples, apricots, pears, cherries, plums, prunes and peaches (as well as their juices). Try limiting these or at least cut down on the portions you eat. Also avoid high-fructose corn sweeteners. Try not to lie down after meals or to take in large amounts of air (gulping foods or chewing gum). In general, it helps to get regular exercise, reduce stress. You can also try adding a drop of peppermint, cinnamon or ginger extract to a glass of water.



Take care.
Reply:No but I don’t eat fruit coz its too sugary. (I only eat them every now and then) I just take Vit C supplements instead.



Maybe its the pesticides they spray them with, I’ve had a bad reaction to non organic foods (especially mangos)



I would see some health care professionals.

Sounds pretty serious.



Have you had it for long? Is it just with some fruits or all?



Hope it sorts out soon
