Splenda - not so good for you

In recent tests, water samples from US water treatment plants discovered that the artificial sweetener sucralose (Splenda) is a widespread contaminant in both source water and treated water

Sucralose is a persistent contaminant as it is not broken down by the chemical water treatment process

Previous research has shown that sucralose can destroy up to 50 percent of beneficial intestinal bacteria (probiotics), which are essential for general health and a strong immune system

Sucralose is chemically closer to DDT and Agent Orange than it is to sugar

Splenda is known to cause a multitude of detrimental side effects in certain people, including allergic reactions and neurological dysfunction
