sugar free products
I just remembered something I had heard a while ago about sugar free products
that may be of help. Some sugar free products use sorbital. This has been
known to cause abdominal distress. I know of a couple of people ( a pack or two
a day of sugar free gum) who had some difficulty. “In some people, excessive
consumption may cause gastrointestinal symptoms, including laxative effects,
similar to reactions to beans and certain high-fiber foods. Such symptoms are
dependent upon an individual’s sensitivity and the other foods eaten along with
the polyol-containing product”.
I cna’t find the previous articles I had read but if I find them will pass
along.
Take care
