If I used exclusively splenda, it might be more than I could count. I use liquid saccharin (Dr Atkins said that was O.K.) and also some stevia. I use it for much more than just beverages. I used to worry about it. Then I was tested for allergies. I was allergic to sugar big time! and to splenda. I was treated with NAET which eliminates allergies. I seem to have no problem with it. I overdid it on sugar alcohols for a while and still use them occassionally. The allergy testing told me my body handles them O.K. I don't worry about it too much, but recently, I am concentrating on a whole food diet which leaves out a lot of the processed stuff. I wish I was not such a sweets addict, but I am. I am working on it. Sugar is out except rarely when I am at a party or some get together with others.

Thanks for starting this thread. I needed this confession, I guess.
