Fructose is a monosaccharide, chemically called glucose fructose (D-fructose), which is a simple sugar that is naturally found in fruits, honey, and certain plants.
Fructose has many uses. One of the main
functions is to sweeten foods and beverages. You may find fructose in a variety
of drinks, snacks, desserts, etc., because it makes food more delicious. In addition,

products, and it is suitable for some people who need to control their blood
sugar intake.

absorption capacity and health of the gut.
Overall, fructose is a sugar that both
increases the taste of your food and has some special applications, but it also
needs to be moderate in your intake to keep you healthy.
