Is Splenda bad for you? - Page 2

[AKmomof2+1inNov]

My husband researched it a lot because we were using it for our coffee a couple of years ago and he started having horrible stomach pains. It's everywhere now and he can not have any, so I have to be really careful what I buy.

I agree about Stevia and natural cane sugar/juice-but I will have a Diet Pepsi about every 3 months. That's moderation right?

For mints, DH loves Penguins and the last batch he just got have no sweeteners at all-but they have caffeine-that's why DH loves them!

I can not agree. I have a friend who uses splenda, upwards of 30 packets a DAY. Shiver. She had the gastro 2 years ago so it is the only sweet she was told she can have. I worry about her. She does worry as well but will not look it up as it is all she has.

The main reason I do not agree though is that even if it is not harmful to the human body, all those places making the stuff are producing harmful waist into the world we must live. How is that ok?
