Thanks a lot, Authfriend.
Isn't Celiac disease an Auto-immune dis-order.??
I'm glad the concerns about Sucralose are anecdotal and not on
experiment. Funny, it was discovered way back in the 1970's

These aren't artificial; they're substances
found in plants. They're not only safe but
can be beneficial by nurturing friendly
bacteria in the intestinal tract.

This is definitely artificial. There's a
detailed discussion about its safety on
this page. Concerns are theoretical and
anecdotal, not based on experiment.
http://en.wikipedia .org/wiki/ Maltodextrin
This is made from starch, so it isn't really
artificial either. No known safety concerns,
but it can aggravate celiac disease if it's
made from starch from wheat or barley. It's
used primarily as a thickening agent, not a
sweetener, although it's mildly sweet.
Almost certainly he wouldn't approve of sucralose,
nor is it "Vedic," since it was developed only
recently. Ayurveda generally prefers fresh,
unprocessed food, so maltodextrin would probably
not be on the approved list.
