Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 10 June 2004, we received this note from N.Q. concerning their use of sucralose.
"I had been using Splenda for about 2 weeks, I stopped about 4 days ago. I was getting severe headaches, abdominal pain, gas, nausea and could barely focus; even after I had stopped using it I still feel the effects when I eat (gas and nausea).

I am really confused about how Splenda is even on the shelves. I would think if they did proper testing of this product they would have been made aware within one week of human testing that this is not good for human consumption or at least give us a warning and these are just the short term effects. I could imagine what long term affects would be. What is scary is that the FDA approved this stuff."


Thank you N.Q. for sharing your story with our visitors.
