About MacB23
I'm a curious nut. And it's this curiosity of mine which has led me here. Specifically, it's my curiosity concerning people in general which has led me to this very site. We all encounter "life experiences" which, at times may seem like too much for one person to handle. So we turn to others for help... and that's where I come in. Whether you're looking for a helpful tidbit or you simply just want to be heard, I'm here. Take care everyone!

Sugar free stuff has sugar alcohol. i know its better than sugar but still. Its sugar. Whenever i eat sugar alcohol i get bellyaches Why?
I'm actually a type-1 diabetic myself and enjoy an occasional sugar-free treat ever now and then. :). As far as I know, it's probably the phenylalanine that might be causing your bellyaches. Majority of the sugar-free products out there have something called phenylalanine which, when consumed in a generous quantity, can serve as a laxative.
My suggestion is to cut down on the amount of sugar free treats you eat and substitute them with healthier, more natural things (ie. fresh fruit, etc.)
Hope this helps :)
