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 20 June 2005, we received this note from S.P. of Moosup, CT, concerning their use of sucralose.

"I have not noticed any bad side effects after using Splenda. I have been using it for almost a year. I have tried the pink and blue packets in the past and, not only do they taste terrible, they give me a horrible headache, especially saccharin.

I have been experiencing headaches for years now and I also don't have the most stable stomach at the best of times, but I can't say I've noticed a change in these symptoms for better or worse since starting to use Splenda. I am also an asthmatic and have been getting allergy injections to try to get my many allergies under control. My symptoms in these two categories have also not changed in either direction since using the Splenda."

Thank you S.P. 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.
