Splenda Self-Test: How to Discover if Splenda is Harming You

The best way to find out if Splenda is impacting your health is to perform this simple test. First, eliminate sucralose completely from your diet for two weeks (as well as all other artificial sweeteners). After two weeks, eat three to five servings of Splenda for up to three days. Do not eat any other variety of artificial sweetener during these two weeks. Watch very carefully how your body responds. If you have any of the symptoms listed above, there is reason to believe that you have a Splenda intolerance. If you have severe reactions, especially on day one, this is a very strong sign that Splenda has an adverse effect on your body. You will do well to avoid Splenda entirely. This test can be performed with any of the artificial sweeteners.
