I don't know where you can get a fructose malabsorption test done you area. You will have to ask your doctor or a medical agency of some sort.
The problem with a fructose malabsorption test is that it does not tell you how sensitive you are to excess fructose. Usually they give you 25 grams of fructose to drink and then they measure hydrogen in your breath. If the test is positive then it simply tells you that your body cannot absorb fructose at a load level of 25 grams. I cannot tolerate a load of 1 gram of fructose. Drinking 25 grams would give me serious problems and lots of pain
The simplest test is to eliminate fruits with excess fructose from you diet and see if makes a difference. However, you have to be dilegent about removing foods with excess fructose. Leaving just one food in can make all of the difference in the world. I have been caught by surprise a number of times.
My daily diet is very simple with relatively little variation. Typically it looks like the following:
Breakfast - oatmeal with banana or deseeded kiwi
Lunch - light curried chicken and shrimp with carrots and zucchini on 1/2 cup slightly reheated white basmati rice
Dinner - chicken, pork tenderloin, lean bison, fish or seafood prepared in a variety of ways with white rice, potatoes or pasta and carrots and/or peas, zucchini or other safe well cooked peeled veggies.
My snacks consist mostly of sourdough bread, matzo and other low fat wheat based products. Usually I make my own snacks from scratch. I rarely eat commercially prepared snacks and definitely no chips of any kind
Stevia is safe. There are plenty of berries and other fruits that don't have excess fructose. Unfortunately, they are probably not as sweet as you might prefer I hope this helps
Good luck.
