Artificial Sweetners??? (multiple conditions)

[daxsmith05]

I cannot have aspartame (PKU)
or too much Stevia, xylitol (polyols) and yacon syrup etc (IBS).
and Sugar obviously (T2D).
I hate saccharin due to bitter aftertaste.

Is there any other sweetners (in particular for chewing or bubble gum)?
I cannot find any with acelsfane pottasium or sucralose which might be OK (they tasete ok) Am I looking in the wrong places????

 

[daxsmith05]

referring specifically to chewing or bubble gum (or even sweets) with acelsfane K or sucralose (or any others not excluded for medical reasons)?

I don't know I'm afraid.

Sugar-free sweets too often have polyols in them which I really don't get on with because of the laxative and fart-inducing side effects 😱

I don't think there are all that many gum manufacturers/brands in the UK - do they all use the same sweeteners?

 

[daxsmith05]

wrigleys use aspartame that is the main one. the rest seem to all use stevia.
there doesn't seem to be any others that use other types.
Unless I have miseed them somehow.

Yes it does seem that Xylitol or Stevia are the replacements of choice, even in the fancy schmancy vegan/wholefood ones.
