Yes I have heard of it...it's a type of sugar alcohol from what I understand.

Also, I have found that I generally *feel* so much better when I stay away from weird chemicals and stuff...I use to shop at the whole foods store. Unfortunately, convenience and price seem to outweigh that value for me a lot of the time. :/
Sadly, that is true (about the costs). I suppose you could get some products at a "regular" market, but I personally wouldn't trust it (meaning if they don't specialize in it, then is it "for real"). Fortunately, I only go to the health food market for me, and I don't buy a whole heck of a lot anyway.
