I guess I just didn't get the connection, because a few weeks later, I got some more of the candy and did the same thing. This time, the pain was a lot worse.

I got on the Internet and did some research on Splenda and found a site where a lot of people had written in with the same symptoms as I had. Well, that did it. I do not eat any kind of artificial sweetener. In fact, I've gotten off sugar completely. No food is worth that kind of pain.

That should prove to us that artificial is not good for us, no matter what it is. It is just a money-making thing that will do us a lot of harm."
