Many of the different types of bars contain maltitol. Which can have a laxitive effect.
"Maltitol is a reduced calorie bulk sweetener with sugar-like taste". Not all of the carbolite contain it but many do. I don't know too much about the other sweeteners that are used.
Be sure to keep a close eye on those ingredients so you can tell which ones give you problems.
