    Aspartame, the most common low calorie sweetener discovered in 1965, when eaten in excess, can lead to aspartame poisoning. Again when eaten in excess... it is commonly used in over 6,000 products and is the most common low-calorie sweetener in most diet drinks. Just throwing caution out there for aspartame... Splenda does not contain aspartame...

    You know the tests that showed those result of "excess levels" (on rats) would required a human to drink near 50 cans of diet soda A DAY to achieve?

    When I say addict---I mean I have to have sweetener in my coffee........................... not literal. Sorry you didn't sense that.
    So regular sugar is better than Agave or Truvia or Stevia?

    MONK FRUIT - In the raw. It is better than stevia, in my opinion, and is now at most grocery stores ! No calories, and no bitter after taste that stevia can sometimes produce.
