<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> This is my first Christmas season as a "Celiac-Diabetic", some kindly & well meaning relatives have sent *sugar free* chocolates. Many people have severe diarrhea reactions to the sugar alcohols-- the "itol" food group-- sorbitol, mannitol etc..... Does anyone know if said substances are GF? Oh! To be gluten free & heart healthy in diet!!!!! Fran -- mailto:[log in to unmask] The children were restlessly tossing in bed For the pie & the candy were heavy as lead...... A spoonful of oil ma'm if you have it handy No nuts and no raisins, no pies, and no candy, These tender young stomachs cannot well digest All the sweets that they get- toys and books are the best But I know my advice will not find many friends For the custom of Christmas the other way tends..........
