To wish that low sugar chocolate didn't make me sh*t myself?

[ketotrauma]

I'm on keto. It's the only thing that works for me, I've lost a stone so far. I can just about deal with the banging headaches and hangover from hell after just one glass of wine.

But honestly I'm getting tired of sharting after low sugar chocolate. Anyone else?

Is it the sweetener? Quite a lot of people have that reaction.
Just get dark chocolate. They can be lovely

Lidl sugar free sweets gave me really bad wind and the shits for 6 hours. Took me 2 days and 2 bags of sweets to realise what it was. 2 weeks on my arse is still sore! Never again. Sweets were lush though.

I know most are fake now but amazon sugar free haribo reviews are hilarious. Especially the fist fun ones, which o suspect may have been real because sweetener does that😂

Never had this problem as I don’t eat low sugar stuff. I was told many years ago by a diabetes Speciailist not to bother - they have a laxative effect as you’ve found out. I think they have warnings on the packet too.
Hope you’re better soon!

fist fun ones

Maybe that's the cause of the shits??

😂 oh my god

FIRST

I was waiting for a bus one time. I had needed change so purchased some chewing gum to get it. I started chewing a single piece. It had sorbitol in it. Had never had it before (or since). Luckily, I was on my way out and was still near to home. Cue a mad dash back home, clenching like I had never clenched before and spent the rest of the day shitting my brains out before falling into bed exhausted at 3am.
Sod that evil stuff and others like it. I'd rather never taste sweetness again.
