Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 2 December 2004, we received this note from D.B. of Orlando, FL, concerning their use of sucralose.
"Two years ago I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. After years of being a sugarholic, I was in a quandry over how I was going to survive not having sugar. I found Splenda!

This was an easy transformation from sugar to Splenda. Within six months my AC1 test showed a marked improvement. This was also due, in part, to medication and weight loss. However, Splenda played an important part of this evolution.

My doctor was very pessimistic about my diabetes and had prescribed Metformin, starting with one pill per day, and was preparing to increase this until I would be taking four pills a day.

I am thrilled to report that I am still maintaining a normal blood sugar on one pill a day. I'm not sure this is a normal case, but I have praised Splenda to a lot of people, especially diabetics. I am a customer for life!

Also, my wife and daughters have joined in sharing my diet and the use of Splenda.  They have enjoyed weight loss due to the reduced calorie intake. My many thanks!"

Thank you D.B. for sharing your story with our visitors.
