Abdominal bloating, gas, belching, distension, and diarrhea are common gastrointestinal symptoms that are reported by at least 1/3rd of patients presenting to gastroenterology clinics. When routine endoscopic and radiological tests are negative1, most of these patients are labeled as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in gastroenterology practice2. Unfortunately these symptoms persist and these patients remain dissatisfied with their health care and continue to doctor shops or seek remedies from alternative care. Several studies have shown that these symptoms have a significant and negative impact on their quality of life3. One possible explanation for their symptom is carbohydrate food intolerance. The Western diet has changed significantly over the last 3 decades. Today, large amounts of fructose are being consumed. This sugar is used as a sweetener in sodas, fruit juices, multiples beverages and candies. Although is naturally present in apples, peaches, pears and oranges,4 the exponential products and consumption of the synthetic high fructose corn syrup has alarmingly increased fructose consumption. When small amounts are ingested, fructose is completely absorbed from the gut mainly through Glut 5transporter from the intestinal brush border or through facilitated transport along glucose through the Glut 2 transporter5. If a person has either limited absorptive capacity or overwhelms normal absorption capacity by excess ingestion, then malabsorption of fructose ensues. This unabsorbed fructose can serve, as an osmotic load, that draws fluid into the intestinal lumen, causing abdominal bloating, gas, pain and diarrhea 6-7. Likewise lactose is a disaccharide that is present in dairy products and is widely consumed. After ingestion lactose is hydrolyzed in the small intestine by the brush border enzyme lactase into glucose and galactose that are in torn absorbed8. If lactose is malabsorbed by Glut 2, then it will serve as an osmotic load, and get rapidly propelled in to the colon where it is fermented by the colonic bacterial flora, into short chain fatty acid, hydrogen,methane and other gases, this lactose malabsorption produces gas, bloating, flatulence and diarrhea9. About 75% of the world´s population gradually lose their ability to produce the lactase enzyme after age 30 years10-11.
