I am one that is very sensitive to sorbitol,mannitol, malitol, etc. I have only found one toothpaste that I can tolerate and that is Arm & Hammer Peroxicare and I only use a small amount and am sure to rinse really well.

Beware of some vitamins that contain these ingredients and all sugar-free stuff and most gums.

Also, I know this sounds strange but I even got an attack after washing my hair with shampoo that had sorbitol in it. I guess either I've gone completely nuts or it was absorbed through my skin. It is in some body lotions, too.

Just wanted to share this info because it took me awhile to track down some of my attacks to these ingredients.
