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 18 May 2006, we received this note from A.F. concerning their use of sucralose.
"I was very happy to come across your website. My 12-year old daughter and I mysteriously started to suffer from severe heartburn. I could understand if I had heartburn, but my daughter having it as well, and at the same time?

We realized that the only thing we had been consuming in common (besides supper) was Nestle Pure Life flavored water with Splenda. We have always consumed a plain water, but ran out and decided to try the flavored water. We were hooked. We were drinking about 2-3 bottles per day for about three weeks when we started noticing the symptoms. After another week of drinking it, we were both so uncomfortable we were chewing and drinking heartburn medication three times a day.

After almost a month of not drinking the flavored water, our symptoms finally subsided. I hope that heartburn is added to your symptom list soon."

Thank you A.F. 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.
