Sugar-Free Sweeteners
Despite their “sugar-free” label, sweeteners like sugar alcohols and artificial substitutes commonly found in sugar-free products present challenges for individuals managing IBS. These additives have the potential to disrupt your GI, causing issues like gas, digestive distress, or even triggering laxative effects, particularly pronounced among those contending with IBS.
It becomes crucial for you to scrutinize labels and opt for alternatives devoid of these sweeteners to sidestep exacerbating your IBS symptoms. [5]
