Many people report upset stomach and diarrhea after consuming normal amounts of erythritol in food or beverages. If consumption is high (50 grams or more per day) then digestive troubles, including gas, cramping, bloating, stomachache and diarrhea, become even more likely. One study specifically showed that the intake of 50 grams of erythritol causes stomach rumbling and nausea.
Though erythritol can cause a laxative effect if too much is consumed, the amount that would cause such a problem is higher than a person would likely consume in one sitting. Erythritol, like other sugar alcohols, has a cooling effect when dissolved in water. This can enhance the flavor and sensation of something like mint gum, but can taste odd in other products, such as frosting.
