If you mean in terms of IBS, I think most of us are really sensitive to them because they are artificial and contain chemicals. I'm sure Heather has a better explanation.
As for other health issues, I think they are, in general, really bad for you because they are man-made and derived from chemicals. With what I know now, I wouldn't put them in my body even if I *could* handle them with my tummy.
