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 14 January 2006, we received this note from S.B.H. concerning their use of sucralose.
"I experienced HORRIBLE foghorn gas with Splenda. I was consuming it in my coffee, sugar-free ice cream, and occasionally in baked products while I was dieting.

At first, I thought it was the result of eating more vegetables and fruits.  When the gas continued for MONTHS (good thing my husband has a good sense of humor), I started looking seriously at what I had changed in my diet. My husband suspected sucralose, and, sure enough, when I quit it cold turkey, the flatulence went away.

On a few occasions since then, I have accidentally consumed sucralose. Each time, I have had the same problem. I have another friend to whom this also happened.  She didn't make the connection until I mentioned it to her.

As far as I'm concerned, sucralose is toxic!"

Thank you S.B.H. 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.
