		<description>I have been avoiding artificial sweeteners for years because of the correclation between ingesting them and having SEVERE migraine attacks following ingestion. Also, the migraines that normally accompanied my periods were 10 times worse if I had ingested aspartame or sucralose by mistake earlier in the month.</description>

		<description>OMG I am not alone, a couple years ago my mom made a cheesecake with splendia and I had a medium sized piece it was good but I couldn’t definitely tell the difference but I thought hey gotta try new things. Well within the hour I started to feel nauseous and then out of nowhere bloomed this into this crushing pain in my temples It was horrible I started to not be able to think straight and went to lay on my bed and hours later it was still there!!! Scared my mom half to death she said since then I have avoided fake sweeteners and have been headache free!!Although I slipped up I was trying this new thing and started drinking slimfast shakes. After an hour I felt it coming on and just to be sure I looked at the can (which I should have done before I drank the thing) and sure enough sucralose and I am now paying the price. My Ibuprophen isn’t doing a thing against it guess I just have to wait it out….</description>

		<description>I get horrible migraines (and have for seven years) ten miinutes after ingesting even trace amounts of sucralose. Interestingly, it also happens after aspartame, neotame, asulfame-k, and any other fake sugar. Excedrin extra strength helps get rid of the migraine if I take it soon enough. Even reading ingredient labels of everything I eat and avoiding the fake sugars, there are small amounts of it in so many things. I still get 3-4 migraines a month, possibly hormonally related?

Good to see I&#039;m not alone!</description>

		<description>Hi!  So, yeah, I&#039;d been trying to slim down, so I started drinking diet sodas, diet Snapples and for the first time I began waking up in the morning with the worst headaches I&#039;ve ever had. I though, &quot;how weird is it to WAKE up with a headache?  Then I started having them all the time, but I never made the connection.  Then I started experiencing what are called &quot;Ice-pick&quot; headaches... HORRIBLE!  They were so debilitating that I finally googled my symptoms, and made the connection between Splenda / sucralose and my headaches.  I stopped eating or drinking anything with Splenda in it and my headaches went away.  I always check labels now.  I&#039;ve experimented since, and I always get a after consuming sucralose.</description>

		<description>Hollie, you are brilliant! 

You have listed a huge number of foods that cause enormous issues in the body. 
A huge number not because you listed so many but because what you did list is in MOST foods. I commend you on the work you do to stay healthy. Today with the boxed foods, frozen foods, microwaveable foods, the hormone injected foods, and the fake ripened methods for our produce, what in the dickens can we eat that is good for us?
All disease is related to what we do and do not eat. 
Super foods can heal us from our diseases. 
Juicers are a terrific investment - the stronger the juicer the better. Juice your carrots and apples, combined (6:2) and drink health. 
Buy from your local farmer and buy what he picks out of his garden, ask where his stuff comes from. Ask if the corn is GMO or if the soy is GMO and if it is, tell him to grow his own. (when you buy GMO you are supporting the farms who use Monsanto seed and Monsanto is a company who is trying to do away with the fresh foods / non-GMO farmers who we want to keep. So - boycott Monsanto: Round Up, their GMO seed, and those who use it. Tell them what you will and won&#039;t buy and let them know how to stay in business. That way they too avoid the GMO seed and avoid giving their money to Monsanto, and if you do not know who they are, learn about them. 
We want our real foods, not our boxed, processed, frozen, or hormone-induced foods- and no chemicals that do not come out of the ground naturally. It is it the only way to stay healthy and avoid the medical insurance fraud game. (if you are on FB see over a hundred discussions on foods, vaccines, and which companies are but bringing us down. &quot;Say NO to Aspartame, Sucralose /Splenda, Gardasil and dangerous &#039;Foods&quot; you do that with your wallet! 
GMO is poison. It is plant whose DNA has been hybrid with pesticide; as a result it contributes to: asthma, allergies, gastrointestinal issues. Read whole articles about it on the above FB group.</description>

		<description>Nutrasweet is Aspartame and it is cited in the book Splenda: Is It Safe or Not. In fact the case history citing Nutrasweet, is about the death of a girl who became hooked to Soda sweetened with Aspartame. She was found dead after having gone to the ER who said she just had flu symptoms and to drink plenty of liquids. She did, more nutrasweet sweetened soda. She was found with her tongue bitten and on the floor, Gran Mal seizure had killed her. 

The Air Force prohibits their pilots from drinking the aspartame because they know it causes Gran Mal or Tonic seizures. They do not want the pilot in flight /cockpit seizing. 

The aspartame when cooked turns into wood alcohol, which is lethal. (it is in the jello you cook on the stove top too.)

before you put a chemical in your body (read food labels) google that name and side effects and see what it is likely to give you. Then you know what may come and what gave it to you. Medicines too.</description>

		<description>Your mother is smart! Stevia has medicinal properties. It stimulates the pancreas and balances the blood sugar. It is 0 in Glycemic Index so it is the best thing a diabetic can use. 

Another excellent &quot;sugar&quot; is Blue Agave. It is a syrup from the Tequila plant and it is delicious. It can be incorporated into recipes and used as syrup on pancakes. It can be measured out like honey. (less liquids in recipes when using liquid sugar)

Your mom is a smart cookie. Get off splenda and aspartame. Both are poisons. 
Aspartame is made with an amino acid which should have its companion amino acids (typically found naturally). But man isolated this particular amino acid and so it allows too much calcium into the brain and there it results in an &quot;excitotoxin&quot;. It burns the brain cells by allowing too much calcium into the brain. 
It will cause brain tumors, hydration, flu symptoms, loss of vision, black outs, ringing in the ears and more. 
Because we are all different you may not suffer all of the side effects, but a few or even new side effects for your body type. 
There are three main types of symptoms for Sucralose /Splenda. But there may be more. Each body type will have its own set of symptoms to a malady. (or combinations of symptoms.) Just because you get those, in this case headaches, doesn&#039;t mean that you are not being affected. You are, because when something is bad for one person it is bad for all of them. 
The same thing happened with the Gardasil shot. ( the HPV vaccine, that they are now trying to offer to boys and older women.) When it came out, for 9-18 yr old girls, some girls seemed unaffected, others died of thrombosis and tachycardia, others were attacked with Guillian Barr and other degenerative diseases like Celiac&#039;s Disease, juvenile Arthritis, incessant seizing, causing thousands to become home bound for years and having to be taken to the Dr. / ER daily for an array of symptoms, mostly those that come with menopause. It was found out later that some who had no pheno-typical symptoms had become sterile, unable to birth babies. 

Poison, although in small quantities can kill. 
Poison in vaccines, (gardasil, flu shots, Hep B, H1N1, MMRll, Most made by MERCK or Glaxosmithkline) can be eliminated from the body, but nuerological damage has occured from the intoxication of these heavy metals (mercury or aluminum) or from the Polysorbate 80 (in the adjuvant, medium, of the shots listed above) the latter associated to infertility.
The point is that just because you are not experiencing one of the symptoms does not mean it is not damaging your body/ brain. You may be experiencing rotting from the inside out and when you feel that symptoms it will be too late. A poison is a poison, if it is bad for one it is  bad for all and you can fool yourself and say it is not going to hurt you but that is all it is, fooling yourself.</description>

		<description>Leigh, are you having any arthritis? Joint Pains? or perhaps welts/ rashes?
If so, stop eating the Splenda, (sucralose is the same thing, so stop ALL sucralose products, read your labels) and see if in a month or actually a few weeks, all of those symptoms don&#039;t just disappear. 
It causes MS and Lupus symptoms also. 

btw, anyone who is eating it to reduce, it only makes you eat more, gain more weight. Because it teases your body, so it never gets what it is teased with, so it wants more. It is highly addictive also, so even if you don&#039;t want more you will struggle with letting it go. 

It has been observed in studies to have shrunken the spleens and thyorids of mice by 45%. The spleen works to supply the thyorid with material to make what the body defends itself with, T Cells. Both organs are essential to health and the immune system.</description>

		<description>Ian, splenda causes brain fog. It did for me, instantly and it did for a co-worker the next day, she had to leave work right after her morning yogurt with splenda in it. I asked her if she had yogurt and if it was diet, with sucralose. Sure enough. She was shocked that I knew. But I had had the same experience the day before. 

It is a poison. Chlorine, the tiny amount they put in the large and vast quantity that fills a pool! will irritate your eyes. (burn them) and we are eating it in a relatively larger quantity than that! and daily! Chlorine in the liquid form creates a green gas that can kill a person just from inhalation. It is a legit poison!</description>

		<description>I discovered while doing a research on Splenda that the body is different for all of us, there are types. (we all have types of blood and other body types that put us in categories of &quot;same&quot;) 
Well, in researching, the body has different reactions to everything and it does for Splenda sucralose. 
Some have headaches, some have rash, some have symptoms that are like Multiple Sclerosis (MS), or Lupus, some get arthritis-like pains but it is made from a poison chlorine. 
And it shrinks ALL of our thyroids and spleens by 45%. This means the organs that are essential to your immune system are being destroyed.</description>
