If you have seen sorbitol as an ingredient in candies, gum, or other sugarless foods, don't be alarmed. It is the same substance that forms on cells and causes cell damage in diabetics. But if you eat it, it won't hurt you. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol that cannot be absorbed by your intestines, it just passes through your body undigested and never enters your bloodstream.
