Overview
•Sugar alcohols like erythritol, maltitol, and sorbitol may cause digestive discomfort such as bloating, gas, or laxative effects if consumed in excess beyond the 32g serving.
•Contains sulphites, milk, and soy, posing risks for individuals with allergies to these common allergens.
•May contain traces of multiple tree nuts, peanuts, and sesame, increasing cross-contamination risks for sensitive populations.
•Hydrogenated oils contribute saturated fats (9.4g per serving), which should be limited in diets for heart health.
