Maltitol

Maltitol is an alcohol sugar. It’s the most common alcohol sugar used, often with maltodextrin. It resembles both sugar and alcohol but does not contain ethanol, as in alcoholic beverages. Because sugar alcohols are incompletely digested, these sugar alternatives provide fewer calories per gram and impact blood sugar less when compared to other dietary carbohydrates.

It’s cousin, maltodextrin, can trigger an insulin response.  If you’re using sucralose in those little packets you’re also getting maltodextrin too. Then you’re likely to trigger an insulin response when you think you won’t. Consuming up to 50 grams of maltitol produced no symptoms in human testing. Products using it are still required to label it “Excess consumption may have a laxative effect.” For people doing a colon cleanse or other detoxification program, this may be beneficial.

How The Sugar Alternative Maltitol Works To Help Lose Weight

Since maltitol does not get fully digested and absorbed, the rise in blood sugar is less, compared to other dietary sugars and starches. As a result, foods sweetened with sugar alcohols are commonly marketed to people with diabetes. However, due to their reduced blood sugar impact, people who take insulin based on their carbohydrate intake may need a lower insulin dose when consuming polyol-sweetened foods. The American Diabetes Association recommends an adjustment to the carbohydrate count be made to account for this reduced blood sugar impact, by subtracting half of the sugar alcohol or polyol grams from the total daily carbohydrate grams.

Along with gastrointestinal issues, literally, you can also get a dull alcohol headache with over use or sensitivity to alcohol.
