I have been steering clear of sugar alchohols I really hadnt eaten any so far in this WOL. well I got a valentine with low carb candy I figured what the **** I will eat a couple pieces..well they didnt agree with me at all. so all the stuff I read about some people having adverse reactions is true in my case at least..

Sugar alcohols always give me, shall we say, "tummy problems".

my wife bought me a box of sugar free chocolates for v-day.
I ate one, tasted okay.
No ill effects. However, I do not have the sugar cravings or tummy problems that many others here have had.Male

I am not sure where I read it but I did read on a lowcarb website that if the SA's dont affect you then you should count ALL the carbs as your body is digesting them like it would sugar :yikesWondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

Thought it was me....
I found this wonderful bag of Chocolate Covered Almonds that said it only had 1 carb per serving. Well I ate them and shall I say they did not agree with me. I am staying away from now on, but they were good when I was eating them.
I thought it was just me since I haven't had chocolate in a while. Guess not.Comment

elizellen is right.
If you do not have issues digestion-wise, you have to count every one of those carbs, and not just the "net" carb, because your body went and absorbed the whole wonky thing!
Also, did you know sugar alcohols come from fruits such as pineapples? Would you eat pineapple on induction? I wouldn't wat it's sugar alcohols either.
Noooooooooo noooooo.
Bad sugar alcohols.Comment
