Supposedly, erythritol (sp?) doesn't cause the same gastric distress that the other sugar alcohols do. I personally am not going to seek it out, since if it is really as good as it says, it will probably just trigger me back into the same unhealthy binge eating pattern that got me here in the first place. I have enough trouble controlling my intake of splenda-sweetened products as it is. Still, you might want to check it out, I read somewhere that it is available at wwww.netrition.com and possibly Trader Joe's.
