I've always been a bit wary about sweetners mainly due to the fact that after a few years they are blamed for causing cancer etc.

I've been looking at some of the recipes for puddings and cakes and of course they all include Splender in the recipe. So i did a little research into Splender (one article to be exact) and it has scared the pants off me.
So much so i have run round the kitchen and thrown out everything that contains any artificial sweetner.

However after reading the post about the bad press the LC diet is getting it reminded me not to believe everything you read and i'm thinking now that i may have over reacted to the article.

Has anyone done any research on sweetners? And i was wondering what other peoples views on them are.
I don't think i could read anymore, the one i read will be giving me nightmares for weeks.
