I recently discovered Mango Passion Peace Cereal and fell in love. However, now it seems whenever I have a bowl, I get really horrible bloating and gas-
Here's the ingredients..Can anyone tell me if I'm missing something that's a trigger?
Organic Milled Corn, Organic Evaporated CAne Juice, Organic Rolled Oats, Organic Barley Malt Syrup, Freeze Dried Mangos, Organic Safflower and/or Organic Expeller Pressed Canola oil, Organic milled Rice, Sea Salt, Organic Brown RIce Syrup, Natural Flavors, Mixed Tocopherols (Natural Vitamin E to maintain freshness), Epazote leaf, organic cardamom seed, Organic fennel seed, organic fenugreek seed and organic nutmeg.

If you have a problem with fructose then freezed dried mango could be a problem.

Of the 53 grams of sugar in 100 grams of raw mango about 37 grams is sucrose, 8 grams is fructose and 8 grams is glucose.

The relative amount of fructose to glucose changes with the variety of the mango and doubt it is also affected by the freeze drying process. An excess of fructose relative to glucose in fruits and HFCS is known to trigger IBS like symptoms even in non-IBS individuals.

I had to eliminate freeze dried fruits from my diet.

Try the Vanilla Almond flavored one. I used to buy that regularly and never had any problems with gas and bloat with it!
