Does anyone drink Diet Coke with Splenda on a regular basis? They put some in our drink machine instead of regular diet coke and I've been feelign funny the past few days and I think it might be from the Splenda.
I end up feeling fuzzy headed and slightly like I have a headache. Slightly off on top of that. The only thing that's been different is the Splenda.
I've read a few things lately about people having really bad reactions to Splenda, which was barely tested in humans. And tested in only a small number of humans, too.
It's sugar that had chlorine added to it. It breaks down to dioxin. That does not leave the body. So, not as healthy as it seems.

I'm swapping the yellow packets for the blue ones.
Heh. It's like the nanoMatrix decision.

What is dioxin and what's bad about it? I'm asking because I prefer the flavor of Splenda to aspartame and other artificial sweeteners. But if it's harmful, I'll switch back. It won't be easy, but I will.
ETA: figures it would be an x-post. Thanks, Tep!
Meet the newest research assistant for the Center for Social Development and Education and UMass Boston.
And? I'm getting $1 more an hour than their maximum. I feel loved.
Oh, but I think I'm gonna break the heart of the director of the Center for Women in Politics and Public Policy. As I left her office earlier today, she said, "Please pick us."
What is dioxin and what's bad about it?
Remember the Ukraine (Russian?) election, and poor Viktor Yushchenko getting poisoned? Dioxin.
Yay, vw! And "aw" to the director of the other center. Still, $1 over max is awesome.
Whole Foods will not carry foods with Splenda in them, and here's why.
Do they not carry Equal and other sweeteners, too?
t /no Whole Foods near me, sadly
Okay. I just threw away my bottle of Diet Coke with Splenda and if anyone talks smack about aspartme I'll point them to the splenda dixion thing.
YAY for vw's awesome new job! And don't worry - the Center will find someone nearly as cool as you.
