Yes. It's a substitute, and one of the better ones. It is passed nearly whole through urine, with a mostly insignificant amount absorbed as energy in your stomach.
Monk fruit is another substitute that is also not a "fake sugar".
Interesting that all these sugar substitutes are being attacked now, but of course actual artificial sweeteners and actual sugar are propped up.
I bought a bag to make homemade sugar free sweets but the stuff made me bloat like never before completely tore me up. I threw out the bag and never again will eat that stuff.
Erythrytol Can do a number on one’s stomach if you’re not used to it. Must start off with small doses before going in big time. But I find it to be very satisfying.

I had a diabetic friend who ate candy with erythritol in it and she was ALWAYS passing gas. In small amounts, I'd think it's useful, maybe.
