Another Splenda Story submitted by a visitor
Splenda Chat

Coming soon... a Splenda chatroom where you discuss the benefits and drawbacks of sucralose consumption with other Splenda users.

On 16 May 2005, we received this note from L.F. concerning their use of sucralose.
"This is to let you know that I also have had severe reactions from using Splenda or other food items using sucralose as the sweetener. I had started using Splenda to sweeten my tea every day. I had also purchased some other food items that replaced sugar with Splenda or sucralose.

The pain most often occurred when the sucralose food item or beverage was consumed on an empty stomach, but I would always have a reaction regardless. My reaction was in the form of severe stomach pain--right at the top and center of my stomach.  This pain was, at times, so sevre that I could not walk or stand up.

I went to my physician and had several tests run, but nothing showed up.  I finally decided to weed out things from my diet, and as soon as I stopped using Splenda, the pain stopped.  

I will never use or buy products sweetened with Splenda or sucralose.

Thank you."

Thank you L.F. for sharing your story with our visitors.

If you have experienced any side effects, whether you are sure it is Splenda or not, be sure to speak with your physician and discuss all possibilities.
