Some good info about carb counts and sugar alcohols
Here is some interesting and informative info I was reading about "net carbs" and sugar alcohols. Thought it might help answer some questions about sugar free products and how much, as well as what types of sugar alcohols we should allow ourselves.

FYI: the dietitian at the hospital said that sugar alcohols can cause some people to to dump. she didn't go into it other than to say this statement as she was quick to move on to other topics.
