What Causes Stomach Cramps And Diarrhea?

yesterday I had no sugar added butter pecan ice cream. Before long I ended up with stomach cramps and diarrhea. Also, I do get gas and flatulence when I consume sugar free cough drops, so now I never consume them. I think it has to do with the sugar alcohol. I also had to stop any carbonated beverages because they caused gas and flatulence. Once I stopped them the problem went away.

Hello,
Many of the artificial sweeteners can cause gas, diarrhea and cramping if consumed in more than very small amounts.
If you choose to use them be very careful and only use small amounts at a time.
