"As of 2005, only six human trials have been conducted on Splenda (sucralose). Of these six trials, only two of the trials were completed and published before the FDA approved sucralose for human consumption. The two published trials had a grand total of 36 total human subjects."
Dave, if this is true, that's just bad science to foist upon the public, isn't it? Additionally, there are a number of natural white sugar alternatives like sorbitol, xylitol, mannitol, fructose, etc that could be used and certainly safer than any artificial sweetener. But isn't it strange how companies like Monsanto or Johnson & Johnson can't just figure out ways to support those or other natural alternatives. Instead, they want to make their own creation, patent it, and make all the money for themselves. The whole emphasis behond it all is money and greed, not people's health, and that's 50% of the reason why people don't like to use these manmade sweeteners like Equal and Splenda. Besides, Dave, it is known that from time to time, some people seem to be made of steel and never are significantly harmed by an onslaught of dubious substances and live to be 100. But that doesn't usually hold true for most people. In any case, if Splenda is working out for you, good. But someone who is younger (especially very young) should probably take it more seriously, since their whole life is potentially ahead of them, and any negative consequences by the ingestion of these substances is going to be greater. -Ken Bagwell --- Dave <[email protected]> wrote: > You must have been listening to Mercola > He bad mouths splenda but has nothing to give > credence to his claims. > I've used splenda since the inception and have had > no adverse effects as > well as > Losing 35 lbs.
