CANDY AND CANDY BARS

 

Most candy is pure sugar and as such should be avoided.

However, if you are going to indulge, a small quantity of dark chocolate is the best choice. The only negative about chocolate is its sugar content, and dark chocolate has a lower sugar content than other types.

There are now many varieties of low-carb, sugar-free, or diabetic candies on the market. Many use sugar alcohols such as sorbitol or mannitol as sweeteners. These sugar alcohols are sweet tasting, but instead of being absorbed into the bloodstream, they remain in the intestines. Consuming candy with high sugar alcohols can cause some stomach upset and diarrhea.
