You have to be careful, because they still have carbs. I tried some last night to help with constipation, and I got a headache a few minutes after finishing one (it was a sugar free jolly rancher).

Carbs and I was told Sugare Alcohols DO have a glycemic factor...

Basically, take the total number of sugar alcohols and divide in have - that the glycemic equivelent of sugar grams you're taking in.

Make sure you count the carbs....

Also, to some, sugar alcohols have a laxative effect! Be forewarned!

My favorite is SF Werther's Caramel Coffee. One has about 10 calories. It doesn't affect blood sugar so it doesn't make you hungry. I limit myself to one or two a day.

I cannot believe that you wrote that. Those are the exact sweets that I am talking about. Good to know that I can feel free to eat them. Even better to know that I must limit myself. I was having around four at a time
I love this forum
