Along with adding a sweet taste, sugar alcohols perform a variety of functions
such as adding bulk and texture, providing a cooling effect on taste,
preventing browning that occurs during heating and retaining moisture in foods.
According to the FDA, foods that contain sugar alcohols but no sugar can be
labeled "sugar free." But if the food is not also low in calories, it must bear
a statement such as "Not a reduced-calorie food." Products containing sugar
alcohols also may be labeled "Does not promote tooth decay," as these
sweeteners are non-cariogenic.
When consumed in excess, sugar alcohols may produce abdominal gas and
discomfort in individuals. As a result, foods containing certain sugar alcohols
that are likely to be eaten in amounts that could produce such an effect must
be labeled with a statement to this effect.
