Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 20 August 2004, we received this note from T.V. of Austin, TX, concerning their use of sucralose.
"As I was drinking a Fruit Refreshers sweetened with Splenda, I decided to read what was in the drink. I remembered that a friend said sucralose was still bad for you and I remembered telling them no, that it was another form of sugar that was supposed to be good for you. I was working from my laptop and thought to myself, "Hmmm. Let's see if it has any side effects." I typed in Google: Is sucralose bad for you?

What I read on your webpage shocked me to the core. I have been using Splenda and drinking drinks that contain them.  Everything that I read that could happen has happened to me! I've been feeling that way for a while now, ever since I tried the Atkin's diet. Now that I think back to when I started feeling this way, it was at the beginning.

I can't believe this diet is even credible. I hope that I can just convince my sister to be careful because she is doing the Atkin's way of eating and I know she consumes a lot of Splenda products. I'm going to give her the link to your webpage and all its information.

What's really funny is I only think about this one thing--How can my Mom always be right?!  She told me Atkin's was no good, although I'm sure she didn't that it was directly related to sucralose. But she knew! Moms are always right!

Thanks for the informative webpage."

Thank you T.V. for sharing your story with our visitors.
