Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Sorbitol

  • Metabolic Effect: Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol and is not fully absorbed by the body, so it raises blood sugar more slowly. However, excessive consumption can cause gas and bloating.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It is important to pay attention to portion control when consuming products containing sorbitol. Especially individuals with sensitive digestive systems should be careful.
  • Things to Consider: Sorbitol is used as a sweetener in some diet products, but excessive consumption can have a laxative effect. A handful of sorbitol-containing candies can cause a mild stomach upset.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from sorbitol, it may be enough to take a light-paced walk for about 12 minutes. This activity helps you maintain your energy balance.
