gums that include sorbitol or other sugar alcohols have been said to lead and promote weight loss as well as diarrhea.

It's really a matter of quantity I think. Almost all sugar-free gums have a carb at least per piece (from fillers and things). If you're a gum junkie going through a pack or two a day, that's maybe 10-20 carbs you've taken in that are sort of "useless" carbs... why do that to yourself if you're trying to go keto?
I gave up gum myself because I found the sugar-free stuff caused me to start craving sugar, just from the taste I guess, whereas without it I totally lose interest in sweets.
