I recently picked up some Splenda. This stuff makes my oatmeal taste great (along with some cinnamon).
As always (with sugar substitutes) some friends have spouted out that Splenda is harmful for me. Is this true or just some knee-jerk reaction?
I looked on the web for any facts and have only found (so far) one site that had bad things to say about Splenda. I should point out that the site was payed for and created by the Sugar Association of America. Who, by the way, has filed a lawsuit.
And to be fair and balanced, here's a pro-Splenda website.
I should also note that the makers of Nutrasweet believe Splenda is bad for you.
So, what are your thoughts?
Thanks for any information.
