"Splenda and Equal are proven substitutes for sugar for diabetics. "Really? Your first post on the subject of artificial sweeteners implied that they would negatively impact blood glucose levels. I simply replied with a link which stated explicitly that they would not. If you read my post earlier to this one in reply to Neeka, you will see that I use NO artificial sweeteners. My reply to you said nothing about artificial sweeteners being good for you, only that they would not negatively impact either short or long term blood glucose levels. Personally, I avoid them though the evidence that they are indeed bad for you is not conclusive. It is a personal choice. Just as it is my personal choice to stay on the Janumet although there is talk that the Januvia is bad for the pancreas (the ambulance chaser lawyers are all over it). My doctor (who I trust) says the negatives from uncontrolled diabetes far outweigh the negatives of Januvia on my pancreas. Like I said earlier, if the thunder don't get you, then the lightning will. In my first reply to you, I was correcting information that artificial sweeteners negatively impact blood glucose levels. They do not.

I agree with you 100%, Splenda is poison and should never be consumed, they have a sophisticated advertising campaign but it's so deceptive... only natural sugar found in fruits should be eaten, let's not kid ourselves, anything fake is fake... there's no way around it... all fake and/or substitute sweeteners only accelerates the development of the metabolic syndrome, e.g., high blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol... all of them should be avoided like the poisons that they are... I stopped using all of it years ago and my blood test numbers all across the board dropped dramatically and quickly, even my doctor was initially amazed at the difference in my blood test readings...
