Here are the ingredients for Tropical Sweetness
Organic Peach Juice, Organic Agave Nectar, Organic Cane Sugar, Water, Organic Mango Flavor, Organic Fruit Flavors, Citric Acid, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Organic Purple Carrot Extract, Organic Turmeric Extract
Agave Nectar (syrup) contains more excess fructose than high fructose corn syrup. It isn't particularly IBS friendly.

Agave Nectar is in all three kinds of my granola bars that I also eat daily. This never ends! Is it really that bad if it's not at the beginning of the ingredient list?

It is the second ingredient on the Crystal Light Pure label. You can give it a try and see if you have any problems. I know I cannot tolerate it even in small amounts.

Well, I do drink a TON of herbal tea of all kinds. I love soy milk, rice, oat, almond, and hemp milks, vanilla and chocolate flavors. I drink chai a lot, decaf and made with soy milk. Also decaf green tea.
I also like just plain water.

You are correct, I quit drinking Gatorade years ago because of the fructose but happened to notice earlier this year it's just sugar now. I drink it quite a bit (mainly to keep my sodium, etc. up due to hypotension) and have no problems with it.

This only contains less than 2% Erythritol. That isn't much, so do you think it would be safe?

Even that amount can cause problems. Sugar alcohol's sweeteners are usually used in low concentrations.
