Dried apricots and bad gas

Whenever I eat dry apricots I get pretty bad and smelly gas. I have had similar issues with other dried fruits, but they seem to be the worst.

I eat very healthy - mostly organic, green smoothies supplemented with lean protein and good fats. Had no Sugar or tea/coffee for the last 4 weeks, but have had this problem also before the diet change and I have been gluten free and mostly organic since 2006 (and organic even before that. Have also had little refined Sugar intake for the last 3 years.

I buy organic and only subsititute inorganic if I know the item has a low pesticide load.

Why would I have such an extreme reaction to dried fruits each time?

BTW, the dried mango slices I had the other day did not give me any trouble :-) Tweet
