When I first read your post - before I went to the site - my first thought was to warn against it, because 99.9% of the sugars ending in -ol are sugar alcohols (think sorbitol, xylitol, maltitol, etc) and they're particularly nasty for IBS'ers. But now that I've read the site, I'm not so sure...
I'd probably still be cautious and steer clear of it, but that's just me - I'm leery of those -ol products anyway, they just KILL me. "Naturally occuring" doesn't really mean anything. I mean, Splenda is marketed as "natural" too, since it's made from sugar, but that doesn't make it safe.
I'll be interested to see what anyone else's input on it is, though... especially Heather's, if she happens to see this one.
