Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 26 January 2005, we received this note from M.P. of Ft. Collins, CO, concerning their use of sucralose.
"Hello.

On three occasions in the past year, I have experienced what I would classify as an extreme case of bloating and gas. It felt as though my stomach was going to burst and I couldn't even stand up. I had to lie on the floor in a fetal position until the pain subsided.

On these three occasions, I had consumed products made with Splenda a few hours prior to the episode. I have never experienced this kind of bloating on any other occasion in my life and the only thing I did differently on those days was consume Splenda.

It's enough of a direct link in my eyes that I will never consume Splenda again."

Thank you M.P. for sharing your story with our visitors.
