Lactitol is a sugar alcohol used as a laxative to treat chronic constipation and as a low-calorie sweetener in diabetic and low-carb diets. It functions by drawing water into the colon, stimulating bowel movements. It is poorly absorbed in the small intestine, which limits its caloric contribution. Lactitol is generally well tolerated but may cause flatulence and bloating in sensitive individuals.
