Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 16 August 2004, we received this note from V.V. concerning their use of sucralose.
"I bought a big box of Splenda at Costco. I started using it a couple of weeks ago. Last week, I used 3-4 packets a day with coffee.  I ended up bloated all night and had to take prescription-strength Tagamet. I will stop using it for a week and see if the problem goes away.

By the way, I had just recovered from a bad stomach 2 months ago. I was not taking any of the so-called ulcer medications. I wonder if the Splenda did that too?!"

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