Why People Avoid Sweetpearl
People may avoid Sweetpearl because it contains maltitol, a polyol that is classified as high FODMAP when consumed in typical serving sizes. For individuals following a low FODMAP diet, particularly those with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), consuming foods high in FODMAPs can lead to digestive discomfort such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea.
