Do you seem to react to any kind of carbohydrate? The low FODMAP diet doesn’t eliminate sucrose (table sugar), but for a small number of people, digesting certain types of sugar and starch might be part of their digestive problems. This week I'm talking about:

• Carbohydrate digestion - how we break down sugars and what can go wrong
• The role of the key important enzyme sucrose-isomaltase
• Testing for sucrose-isomaltase deficiency
• How a beneficial yeast supplement might help digest sugars
• What foods are low in starch and sugars, and how does this differ from the low FODMAP diet?
