Are Sugar Alcohols Sabotaging Your Low-Carb Diet?

So, What Are Sugar Alcohols Anyway?.Let’s get one thing straight—they’re not sugar, and they’re not alcohol. Confusing, right? Sugar alcohols (fancy name: polyols) are sweet-tasting carbs that show up in sugar-free gum, protein bars, and “keto” treats. They’re popular in low-carb and diabetic-friendly diets because they offer a sweet hit with fewer calories and way less impact on your blood sugar. Kinda feels like a win-win—at first glance.
