ChrisKnight Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 After reading some of the really well written and sometimes hysterical reviews about these things, I wondered if anyone here has ever eaten them in order to force uncontrollable messing? Link to comment
Princesskatie2 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 its the sugar free ones. its a sugar substance in it that is causing it. Link to comment

willnotwill Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Most of the sugar-free candies have sorbitol in them and can give you the runs. Link to comment
ChrisKnight Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 The Haribo Sugar Free Bears are using something called Lycasin for the sweetening: Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Does it really just take about half an hour for the deluge to hit? Link to comment
astrodiaper Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I've never heard of this. I do know that eating an entire bag of cranberries or drinking coffee does this same thing. Are the sugar free bears any good? Link to comment
kevindhca Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 This reminds me of the episode of House. A patient tells Dr. House he is having bowel trouble, and House says, how many packs per day? The patient says, no, I quit smoking. The Dr. then says, no, how much gum? We use the sweetening ingredient here in the hospital, as a laxative. Link to comment
willnotwill Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Yep, Lycasin is another sugar-alcohol derived thing. Link to comment
rusty pins Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 There's a diet aid called "Alli" that works by binding to fat molecules, making them non-digestible so that they just pass on through. Link to comment
