Yeah, Joanne, I'm confused now, too. I gave you the link, and it does say,
Total sugars   -   8.5 g
Fructose        -   1.5 g
Sucrose         -   5.7 g
Glucose         -   1.3 g

So, yes, totally confusing.

and yes, sucrose is the enemy, because.......

From Wikipedia :-

Sucrose is a disaccharide made up of 50% glucose and 50% fructose and has a moderately high glycemic index of 64, about the same as honey, 62, but not nearly that of maltose, which is a disaccharide made up of 100% glucose (i.e., 2 parts glucose), 105,^[22] which, in turn, causes an immediate response within the body's digestive system. As with other sugars, sucrose is digested into its components via the enzyme sucrase; to glucose (blood sugar) and fructose. The glucose component is transported into the blood (90%) and excess glucose is converted to temporary storage in the liver - named glycogen. The fructose is either bonded to cellulose and transported out the GI tract or processed by the liver into citrates, aldehydes, and, for the most part, lipid droplets (fat).

As the glycemic index measures the speed at which glucose is released into the bloodstream a refined sugar containing glucose is considered high-glycemic. As with other sugars, over-consumption may cause an increase in blood sugar levels from a normal 90 mg/dL to up over 150 mg/dL.^[23] (2.3 mmol/l to over 4.4 mmol/l)

The link I gave Joanne is here, :-

If that info is correct, then there is 4.35 Fructose, and 4.35 Glucose.......? In a peach!!
Anyone help here?

Finding the fructose in fruit can be tricky.  The food standards website have changed.  They used to put exactly what was fructose and what was glucose.  Now they have sucrose which as Sylvia mentioned is 50% glucose and 50% fructose so basically to work out what's in a peach... you half the sucrose amount so 5.7/2 is 2.85, and add the fructose amount so 2.85+1.5 is a total of 4.35g fructose per 100g. On top of that you need to remember the size of the fruit so 100g would be about a medium size peach.  There is no harm in having 1 a day.  I love my fruit and I have fruit for afternoon tea every day or maybe a strawberry after dinner if I ever feel like anything sweet.
