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 8 August 2005, we received this note from L.O.C. concerning their use of sucralose.

"Splenda DOES cause gas. Not even the normal type of gas, but a long-lasting one. It sucks!!

I love the taste of Splenda, but I will no longer use products with it in it. We made some brownies with Splenda (boxed brownies). Within just an hour or so after eating them, our whole family experienced the bloating and gas and it stayed with us through the entire next day.

It appears to mess with your digestive tract--not good!!"

Thank you L.O.C. 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.
