Definition

Sugar substitutes such as erythritol (0.2 kcal/g), xylitol and maltitol (about 2.4 kcal/g).

Only partly absorbed in the small intestine, so they raise blood sugar less. Erythritol mostly leaves in the urine.

Maltitol and sorbitol cause diarrhea in large amounts. A sugar-free label still leaves the calories of sugar alcohols.
