This is interesting. Can you describe the reaction you have to sugar alcohols?

I ask because sugar alcohols don't agree with me at all. The laxative effect is well documented but it seems to be particularly strong for me - not at all convenient on the bike. They also make me fell mildly ill, queasy and light headed if consumed rapidly, downing a drink or bar at a rest stop for example.

Would be interesting to hear what you say.
