Splenda

Post by ianlib »

Has anyone found Splenda irritating to the prostate? It is a sugar substititute called sucralose .

Many people find it irritating if purchased as a packeted powder. It's packaged with maltodextrin, a fungal product to which most mold-allergic people are sensitive. Those same people do not react to Splenda (sucralose) in products like commercial drinks. Splenda is supplied to manufacturers in the pure form without the maltodextrin.

Aspartame (Nutrasweet) is a far nastier product. See http://www.aspartamekills.com
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

I seem to tolerate Splenda just fine. Aspermate, on the other hand, rips me up. Diet sodas are off my "OK" list.

I use stevia a natural herb...its sweeter than all of the artificial ones. Can pick it up at a natural food store.
