Unhappy use of sugar-free products

I was wondering if anyone has had digestive problems from the use of sorbitol that's used to sweeten diatetic gum and candy. Ever since I've been low carbing I have chewed a lot of sugar-free gum. I have had some real problems with digestion, diarrhea, abdominal pain. My stomach is a mess! After searching the web trying to figure out what I'm doing to cause this, I found some great articles from consumer reort groups about the side effects of sorbitol. Some groups even have asked the government to label all sugarfree products to warn consumers. I have sworn off sugarfree gum for now and I'm hoping to feel better soon.
