I have SAs as treats and I count half the amount of sugar alcohols as carbs.

When I have company over or I am going out somewhere I use them so I dont feel deprived.

SA do not cause a rise in blood sugar for me, but I definitely think I am getting some type of insulin response from them and I get knocked out of ketosis when I have too many of them.

I agree that people really shouldnt eat sugar alcohols in excess but I also dont think the FDA should regulate it. People can flip it to the back and see for themselves. Its not as though its hiding there.

They dont regulate weight watchers point system and the net carb system isnt calorie based.

Pasta obviously has a high amount of net carbs and inst super high in calories while a fatty cut of steak would have 0 net carbs and be much higher in calories.

People need to do things on their own.
