Re: Splenda and Aspartame

I recently have started using Splenda. I am consuming a normal a normal amount. Well now I have stopped because since I have been using it I am very short of breath and am breaking out in hives all over my body. I researched this online and many people have the same thing happening to them after eating splenda. So I am allergic to it, but personally unless you are diabetic you shouldn't really eat artificial sweeteners like splenda because its not healthy. I mean who knows..in a few years doctors will find out that splenda causes some disease or something. Its a bit far - fetched but who knows.

Re: Splenda and Aspartame

I've been avoiding Splenda altogether recently. It's simply not worth all the cramping and diarrhea I get when I have any.

Re: Splenda and Aspartame

My mom uses Spelnda. I think it tastes terrible and it doesn't work for cooking. To me, aspartame and Splenda taste exactly the same. It's my personal belief that they're poisonous and they'll kill you, but I can't prove it!

My roomate bought a package of Stevia. She says it tastes fine, but I noticed she's only used it once in the past YEAR since she bought it!

Re: Splenda and Aspartame

I've heard peoplee complaining about a chemical aftertaste with Splenda. I've never really noticed that. I have other problems with it that prevent me from using it, but I'm not sure the aftertaste is something I'd want either.

Re: Splenda and Aspartame

Why would you want to ingest a molecule that your body has no evolutionary knowledge of? Twenty five years ago some were questioning hydrogenated fats but were overwhelmed by industry and their poodle FDA. Artificial molecules may have untoward consequences that are not readily apparent. The large increase in autism, obesity, mental disorders, diabetes and other conditions may be someday be conclusively placed at the increase in such artificial molecules.
