Sugar Alcohols
- Glycerin
Chemically a sugar alcohol, used to keep bars soft and moist rather than to sweeten. The EU safety authority found no safety concern at food levels. Large amounts can draw water into the gut and have a laxative effect.
EFSA re-evaluation of glycerol E422 (2017) - Maltitol
A sugar alcohol that does raise blood glucose, with a glycaemic index around 35 where most polyols are near zero. It is the usual cause of the digestive complaints from protein bars: bloating, gas and a laxative effect, typically above roughly 30 to 40g a day.
