Does malitol give anyone else a stomach ache?

I wondered if this is a side effect of malitol. One candy bar with malitol gives me horrible stomach problems? Anyone else? I think I will eat the "real" stuff just in very small quantities. Also, I wanted the mention the "Zone" bars. They are awesome. Double chocolate is my favorite and I substitute them for meals. I had one this a.m. for breakfast. They also have a tremendous amount of vitamins.

Yes, malitol makes me very naseous. I can eat one low carb bar, but after that.... yeah, I'm sure I don't have to explain.
