Not always true - I get gastric effects from pretty much any of the
sugar alcohols! I tried something that had only erythritol as a
sweetener and.... it was no different for me than any other sugar
alcohol.

I was able to use any of the sugar alcohols for quite some time without
any problem and I guess my body decided "enough" - or I was going
through enough of a constipation period that the sugar alcohols made me
"normal" again!!!
