But it's a puzzlement..

Post #233,578 by Ashton 11/11/05 2:58:57 PM Reply	But it's a puzzlement.. 'Splenda side effects' gets about a quarter Million hits! Perfect illustration of, all that Information: so little you can trust. I have no idea (that I'd ~trust ;-) which of the extant choices are least noxious for Me, but adding 'for diabetics' - only cuts the hits to 165K (!) Presumably it is individual metabolism, genetics which would determine a tolerance for the negatives; pity we don't even know our own 'tolerances', I wot. My WAG is that, because of the consequences of n! .. much of the 'data' wouldn't pass Stat 101; all one can hope for, I guess - is to stumble upon a researcher with a semblance of non-trivial data and enough corroboration (not 10 folks quoting each other!) Circle game. I tried some ice cream w/Splenda. Seemed better tasting than Nutrasweet? which I probably had <10 times. Quite less of that aftertaste I can't accept - of prevous Diet-whatevers. But I did notice an ""odd"" after-effect.. sorta bloated? or vaguely unsettled-in-stomach; ie just as 'vague' an experience as these words! Luck balancing the Unknowns, Ashton

A few [-]s might converge - but nobody here can learn any search-fu from the likes of moi, so why should I offer any? (Still, 'Whysall number of bogus searches' got 71, even a few with name.) Smart ass!

I haven't noticed any side effects, but I have not been looking for anything, either. When I was first diagnosed with diabetes ~1 year ago, the lady at the ADA education I went to suggested the use of Splenda, and the ADA's website recommends it as well on their [link\|http://www.diabetes.org/nutrition-and-recipes/nutrition/sweeteners.jsp\|sweeteners] page stating: Low Calorie Sweeteners Don't throw away your low-calorie sweeteners just because sugar is safer than you thought. Low-calorie sweeteners are "free foods." They make food taste sweet, and have no calories and do not raise blood glucose levels. They do not count as a carbohydrate, a fat, or any other exchange. They can be added to your meal plan instead of substituted. The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the use of these low-calorie sweeteners. The American Diabetes Association accepts the FDA's conclusion that these sweeteners are safe and can be part of a healthy diet. It never occurred to me to do more research. -- Steve [link\|http://www.ubuntulinux.org\|Ubuntu]
