Whenever I have something made with this, I get really bad headaches! I try to stay away from artificial sweetners. I'm sweet enough :lol:
Splenda isn't aspartame, its sucralose...which is better, health wise. The best sugar is the 'raw' sugar. It's not been refined. "In determining the safety of sucralose, FDA reviewed data from more than 110 studies in humans and animals. Many of the studies were designed to identify possible toxic effects including carcinogenic, reproductive and neurological effects. No such effects were found, and FDA's approval is based on the finding that sucralose is safe for human consumption." - FDA Talk Paper T98-16.
Yeah - I now they're not the same. But whenever I've tried Splenda, it still tastes funny to me. I wonder if its like the 'litmus' paper? Did you ever taste that in science class? I could taste it - so I would think that other things taste differently to everybody..
Yea, but remember the FDA also approved phen-phen, Vioxx, Baycol, and Rezulin ...all of which have been recalled. I use Splenda, but not necessarily because the FDA says its safe.
