I have a lot of food sensitivities, one of which is Sucralose, because it is bonded to the chloride molecule. I discovered erythritol several months ago and used it when a little sweetness was needed. I just can't stomach many of the bariatric products because of the artificial sugars. My question is: Has anyone here had experience with it after a bypass? It is absorbed not metabolized by the body but is normally dealt with in the small intestine.

I’ve tried them all too , not because of a sensitivity, but my taste changed so much after surgery that nothing tastes good. The erythritol and the monk fruit had such awful sensations in my mouth ( a hot feel ) and an after taste that I could not stand.. I didn’t want to go back to Splenda and even if agave is low on the glycemic index , it’s still got a lot of carbs and calories... I miss my cappuccino but without any sweetness it’s a no go. I miss Splenda and will encourage anyone to try and talk me out of not going back to it( if only in my skim milk cappuccino)oooh, and Stevia ( same yucky after taste)
