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 November 2005, we received this note from Q.C. concerning their use of sucralose.

"I have severe headaches every morning, beginning with about my second cup of coffee or so, and continuing throughout the morning until I take a pain killer. For personal reasons, I began a two day fast, only water and no food including Splenda.

I noticed--no headaches. Third morning, coffee with Splenda and the headache was back. I cut out the Splenda as a test--no headaches.

I drink Diet Coke with Splenda at night. Headache is faint in the morning after the Diet Coke the night before. Now, I'm cutting out all Splenda and the headaches seem to be disappearing.

I thank God it was that simple."

Thank you Q.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.
