Re: use of sugar-free products

Oh yes, yes, yes!
I have only to suck on a few sugar free lollies and I get the most horrible belly ache. Most food items with sorbitol I've seen in Australia carry a warning that states something like "this product can have a laxative effect." I don't get the diarrhoea but the pain is something else! 
So no sugar free chewing gum or lollies for me either.
