An alcohol sugar that increases blood sugars? Well, that explains why they make my feet all buzzy! 
Looking for verification, I found...
I don't know if it was the first factoid that caused me to previously miss/gloss over that second little tidbit or what, but apparently I did. 
Fortunately (I spoze) I listen to my body over what I see/hear/read, so I've been avoiding the alcohols anyway. It's nice to know it's not some kind of anomaly though... 
FWIW, I found the above by goggling: debunking "net carbs". More can be found searching "net carbs" scam and similar.

Wow! Your good at sniffing out scams. I am also having problems with sugar alcohols. They also give me terrible stomach cramps.
I just had to reorder a bunch of vitamins today because there is Sorbitol in my B12 and R Lipoic acid I take them twice a day and they were making things worse even at that small amount. I made a list of 'other ingredients in vitamins'. I have to goggle them to see what the heck they are. Never had to get that granular before with ingredients.
