My lasted a couple of hours and I went to sleep and was fine the next day. Why do they sell them??

FlawedHumanBeing · 05/10/2023 22:26

I learned the hard way about sugar free stuff as a child of around 8.
I was at a friends house. They had run out of toilet paper and so they gave me strips of newspaper.
Not a mistake I’ve ever made again! Hope it passes quickly op.

It's a bit like if senakot tablets tasted really good, so you ate the whole box.

Sugar free haribos are the devils work. Anymore than 4 and that's the whole day gone; literally flushed away.

I have never heard this before!

There are usually warnings that excessive consumption may have a laxative effect. Its the polyols they use as a sugar substitute that causes it E.g . sorbitol

LemonWaterSugar · 05/10/2023 22:54

I've had this and it passed pretty quickly.. 19 hours? Good luck and stay hydrated

JamieJ93 · 05/10/2023 22:54

Ring sting pending 😏

I'm partial to a menthol lyptus when I need a clear head but it's definitely 3 a day maximum!
