Guest guest Posted August 26, 2003 Report Share Posted August 26, 2003 I keep reading warnings from intelligent, knowledgeable people, but others just ignore them. Aspartame was and is a total joke - a very dangerous product - and Splenda (chlorinated, chemicalized sugar!) is probably going to hurt a lot of people, too, given time. Dr. Joseph Mercola has one of the top health oriented websites on earth. Here's yet another warning about Splenda, a/k/a Sucralose: Dr. Mercola's Comment: Please note that I do not advise using Splenda. Nearly three years ago I posted an article describing the dangers of Splenda (sucralose). Why not use Splenda? Well, research in animals has shown that sucralose can cause many problems such as: Shrunken thymus glands (up to 40% shrinkage) Enlarged liver and kidneys Atrophy of lymph follicles in the spleen and thymus Increased cecal weight Reduced growth rate Decreased red blood cell count Hyperplasia of the pelvis Extension of the pregnancy period Aborted pregnancy Decreased fetal body weights and placental weights Diarrhea Nearly every month we receive a report from someone who has had an adverse reaction to Splenda, and you can see many of them posted on our site. Interestingly, my position on sucralose has caused junkscience.com to call me a "dubious alternative health guru". I have no problem in the fatally flawed paradigm calling me names for pointing out the truth and remain grateful that the information on this site continues to help people avoid chemicals that will limit them from experiencing their optimal health. Linda SO GOOD it's absolutely GUARANTEED! www.prostarvitamin.com/22284 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
