Hi, my name is Amber and I am addicted to Splenda (Hi Amber). I use it daily in my tea and coffee. I have a tough time with the sugar alcohol though. I can have a little bit, like one hard candy. Anymore than that and laxative effect doesn't even come close to describing it. You just have to see what you can tolerate. I stay away from Nutra Sweet now because it turns into formaldahyde(sp?) in your system. Has something to do with it changes above 80 degrees. My science professor explained it to me the other day so I decided it isn't worth it to me. However, I ate/drank it for years with no problem. I guess it's just the thought.
