These sugar-free candies have 354 kcal and 70 g sugar per 100 g. Sweetened with sorbitol or maltitol instead of sucrose. Lower calorie load, but >30 g of sugar alcohols can cause loose stool. A small handful is fine; a full bag is not.
How should I track Gum drops, no sugar or low calorie (sorbitol)?
The trickiest part about tracking Gum drops, no sugar or low calorie (sorbitol) is that small portions pack a lot of calories, and most people estimate sweet portions poorly. Research (Almiron-Roig et al., Appetite 2013) found that calorie-dense foods are underestimated by 50–200% when portioned by eye. Weighing on a scale takes the guesswork out. And here is the mindset shift that helps: tracking sweets is not about guilt. It is about awareness. When you log a treat honestly, you can plan around it and still hit your targets for the day.
