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 17 January 2006, we received this note from J.T. concerning their use of sucralose.
"In an attempt to lead a healthier life and stick to my diet, I started consuming sugar-free foods and beverages sweetened with Splenda instead of sugar.  The first day or so, I was fine.

After a day or so, I started to become very ill with chronic diarrhea and stomach pain. This continued for a couple of days. I couldn't figure out what could be causing my stomach problems, but a friend suggested it could be the Splenda.

I did some research on the Internet and found that this was a common complaint among many other people. I stopped using Splenda and I felt fine.

Just to be sure, I ate a few sugar-free jelly beans sweetened with Splenda and, guess what?! I got really sick all over again!

This stuff is bad news. No more Splenda for me!"

Thank you J.T. 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.
