I love this ice cream! It's a great treat that has a decent amount of protein, low sugar, and low cal. I would caution people who have an issue with sugar alcohols to be careful, though. If you're able to enjoy a few bites and put it away, it's a great treat. The lemon cake is my favorite flavor. :)

The molecule that makes up erythritol is so much smaller, and very little of it can reach the colon to feed the bacteria that would cause the upset. And for the percentage that does make it- well the intestinal bacteria can't digest it. Erythritol enters the blood stream and 90% is actually excreted in the urine untouched.

It has a zero glycemic index too!

The warning for it is that should you consume over 50g at once you may have stomach upset/grumbling.
