Why do these cookies contain fiber and sweeteners like erythritol? Will they affect digestion? — Low-carb cookies Snaq Fabriq glazed Chocolate with hazelnuts 35g.

In this cookie, water-soluble corn fiber and oligofructose from chicory are used to add bulk and a slightly sweet note while contributing less digestible carbohydrate than regular flour and sugar. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol that provides sweetness with very few calories, and sucralose is a high-intensity sweetener. Together, they help create a sweet, dessert-like taste without relying mainly on sugar.

For most people, these ingredients are well tolerated in the amounts found in a single 35 g cookie. However, some people are sensitive to polyols (like erythritol) or to higher-fiber foods. If you eat several cookies at once, or if you are not used to such ingredients, you may experience bloating or gas. This is why the product information suggests starting with a modest amount, especially before exercise or a long trip.

If you have a digestive condition or are unsure how your body reacts, try one cookie first and see how you feel. Do not use this product as a substitute for a balanced diet.
