A member asked:

What negative side affects happen if i have too much splenda/ sweet n low/ or stevia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No problem: The artificial sweeteners are all pretty much interchangable from a medical standpoint. Pick which ever one tastes best to you. Some cannot be used in cooking. Who knows what "too much" means? Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet.
