    maltilol

    I can't spell the "maltilol" it's a sugar sub.
    would it be better than using aspertame? the Genisoy low carb bar I've been having it's got 19 grams of maltilol subtracted from the carb source

    Maltitol is found in many things requiring artificial sugar including chewing gum - and it can cause reactive effects if taken in high quantities. I'm allergic to it myself, which is a very strange allergy.

    The actual term for this is called a sugar alcohol, which is a basic chemical derivative of simple sugar. Others in the family include xylitol, sorbitol and mannitol which are often found right along with maltitol.

    Reactions are very common - unfortunately like you guys said they are in most artificially sweetened products. I have yet to find a protein bar that does not contain maltitol.

    It gives me a good excuse to not eat dessert in restaurants - my line is that "if I don't know what's in it, I don't eat it."
    Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.
