Splenda - the sugar substitute you need to be wary about
On 25 January 2004, we received this story from JR in Peoria, IL, concerning his use of sucralose (Splenda):
"I had some Splenda in some cookies I ate earlier today. Tonight, I experienced extended panic attack-like symptoms, difficulty concentrating, heart racing, loss of fine muscle control, nervousness, butterflies, etc.

I didn't even realize it might be the Splenda until my wife mentioned it was in the cookies. It prompted me to search the Web to see if any such effects were documented.  I was so glad to find your site and learn that my experience wasn't unique.

We'll be throwing the package away, and will cease to use it in the future."

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