Default OTC Medication to Help with Sugar Alcohol Reaction?

To bad they don't have an ingredients list on the page. As soon as I
see a phrase like Zero "Impact" Carbs (quote mine) I know damn well
there are sugar alcohols involved.


This is from the dark chocolate with soy crisps;

real chocolate (chocolate liquor, erythritol, inulin, cocoa butter, calcium
carbonate, milk fat, sodium caseinate, soya lechthin) soy protien crisps,
natural flavors, sucralose

I like the Z-carb bars, but their labels cannot be right because, for
starters, there are a couple grams of carbs in the cocoa of the dark
chocolate.

Even 1 square of plain baking chocolate has a couple grams of carb.

Plus, as much as I enjoy them, I do see a very slight rise in blood sugar
not compatible with "zero" carbs. More like 2-5. That works for me, and I
don't get gas from them, but I'd take the label with a grain of salt.

I'll have one when my PMS gets bad. It kills the cravings without creating
more. So for me, they have their place once a month.
