Nope, your body cannot absorb sugar alcohols. But be careful! Too much of it can cause bloating and painful gas. It also can have a laxative affect. Sometimes i'll have an Atkins bar if my chia seeds and miralax don't work. :-)

Thanks!! I found a protein bar with 20 grams of protein, 0 sugars and 11 sugar alcohol. I wasn't sure if that was bad.

You are welcome! I'd advise you to eat only 1/4 or 1/2 of it and wait 24 hours. I always feel the symptoms of too much sugar alcohol in about 8-12 hours. What's the name of the protein bar?

SleeveShelly what the name of the bar. If you don't mind me asking.

thanks

They are called Think Thin

Those are pretty good. I have not had any post sleeve, but had them pre sleeve. They are really filling too.

More than 2 or 3 sugsrfree candies like lifesaver size mess me up
