Some of the other "Sugar alcohols," no nutritive sweeteners ending in 'ol', can also cause diarrhea. For some as little as one beverage.👍 1Leave a comment:

Zero calorie sweetener linked to blood clots and risk of heart disease, study finds
Consuming a drink with erythritol — an artificial sweetener used to add bulk to stevia and monk fruit and to sweeten low-carb keto products — more than doubled the risk of blood clotting in 10 healthy people, according to a new pilot study.
Clots can break off blood vessels and travel to the heart, triggering a heart attack, or to the brain, triggering a stroke. Previous research has linked erythritol to a higher risk of stroke, heart attack and death.
