I realize that our bodies are made of chemicals...but I am pretty sure "sucralose, and aspartame" are not natural occurring chemicals in the body. Personally, I try to avoid foods that are artificial and packed with preservatives. There isn't any research on the long term effects of splenda because its only been around…

I don't think they really know whether artificial sweeteners are totally safe for consumption. They are manufactured in a factory....out of chemicals...probably not this best thing to be putting in your body. There have also been studies that suggest artificial sweeteners can actually cause weight gain.
