Sucralose... was: thin or healthy?

[Guest guest]

I also use sucralose. I respond differently to sucralose than other non-caloric

sugars, and that it nearly always helps my CRON efforts.... both CR and

ON improves. This is just me, and may not be the same for everyone else.

As for safety, each of us will judge & weigh present evidence from scientific

studies, NIH, pubmed and the scientific literature. While there's no evidence

that sucralose is harmful at this point, science only knows so much. For

safety, the least processed foods would be first choice.

I just hope to avoid reading about Mercola or his cohort Mark Gold in reference

to anything scientific. Having investigated their references myself, I

have found their claims about sucralose to be unsupported, and that their

websites spread their own spin on sucralose ( & other subjects!). I conclude

that they both are quacks, a disgrace to the scientific community & a

disservice to the public. Peer reviewed studies can be found at

I tend to agree and use sucralose myself, but there is an element of a false

dilemma here. There is another alternative, not using either. I doubt that

a moderate use of sucralose is harmful, however the original poster's comment

about gallons of Tab does have merit, and I am sure from the rest of your

post that you agree.
