Inside scoop zero series

I had terrible bloating after the ice cream. So I went around to find information about the Ice cream.

My favourite ice cream now has a zero sugar version. Replacing cane sugar with Maltitol and sorbitol. Is it healthy? 

Nice! It’s always exciting when a favourite treat gets a “healthier” version — but let’s break it down:

Maltitol and Sorbitol are sugar alcohols, often used as sugar substitutes in sugar-free or low-carb products. They have fewer calories than regular sugar and don’t spike blood sugar as much — but there are a few things to keep in mind:

Pros:

  • Lower glycemic index: They don’t raise blood sugar as quickly as cane sugar.
  • Fewer calories: About 2–3 calories per gram vs. 4 for sugar.
  • Tooth-friendly: They don’t contribute to tooth decay like sugar.

Cons:

  • Digestive issues: In larger amounts, they can cause bloating, gas, or even a laxative effect — especially maltitol.
  • Still carbs: If you’re tracking carbs strictly (e.g., on keto), these still count, just less than sugar.

There is no nutrition contents with inside scoop product. Their official website claimed that it has 20% less calorie than the regular version.

To achieve the same amount of sugar, do they use the same gram of morbitol and sorbitol?
