Splenda Safety Issue?
Is splenda not as save as we were made to believe?
It has bothered me for quite some time that splenda advertises so heavily toward parents and kids. It took years to find out that equal and nutrasweet were not particularly safe for children and pregnant women, yet Splenda maintained it's product was safe because of it's close molecular makeup to sugar.
Apparently there are some questions regarding it's safety coming up. Take a look at my friend Carrie's blog for an take on the issue. http://naturalmommy.blogspot.com/2006/01/is-splenda-safe.html
She mentions Stevia, a natural low-calorie sweetener as an alternative. I will give it a try and give you an update in the next few weeks.
