It's the sugar alcohols. The good news is that since you have serious digestive upset, you are probably not absorbing most of the carbs. For the people that have no discomfort, they are absorbing and metabolizing all the carbs. At any rate, they do have some carbs for everyone. Newer research has shown that the least you can count is 50% of the carbs.
