Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 18 December 2004, we received this note from J.G. of Toronto, Canada, concerning their use of sucralose.
"I'm ashamed to say, but I'm a "sweet addict".

I too have switched to Splenda. I've stopped drinking diet soda, because the ones made with Splenda are not as readily available as the others. I've cut down my coffee intake to 2-3 cups per week: but I do like my Splenda in it.

Unfortunately, in this North American society we live in, abundance is rammed down our throats. Too much sugar is bad for us, lo and behold Aspartame came along ............ which I heard 'sparks' the cancer gene. Then Splenda, comes to save the day, and now more bad news????

As my father always said, "Moderation, my child, moderation.""

Thank you J.G. for sharing your story with our visitors.
