I am 4 weeks out and I am dying for hot tea, Can we have Splenda? If not then is there something else we can have?

Thank you.

I use Splenda. I am 3 months out. I used it as soon as I could have Decaf coffee.< br>

Other sweeteners, stevia, Monkfruit and agave. Maybe you'll like one of them as well.

Splenda is the only sweetner i use, my favorite is the sugar blend! The best tasting sugar substitute i have found hands down. I was sleeved august 29th and started using it almost immediately. Goodluck on your journeys:0)

I stayed away from Splenda forever post-op. But, I brought it back several months ago (in some decent quantity, too), and it has caused absolutely no problem at all.

I eat a lot of Splenda.

Splenda is sucralose, a sugar alcohol, I would make sure my doctor is okay with it, but I usually err on the side of safety.

Splenda is encouraged by my group. Nearly all the Protein Shakes have sucralose in them including Premier Protein.

Splenda was recommended by my Dr. perfectly safe, been using for over 5 months.

sucralose is not a sugar alcohol.

sugar alcohols include xylitol, erythritol, etc. and they are, in my opinion, a much better choice than Splenda.

My program was fine with Splenda and my stomach was cool with it too. When I was in the hospital my liquid meal tray they brought me included a mug of hot tea with some Splenda packets.

I switched from splenda and went to Stevia. Splenda has so many adverse side effect and can cause cancer and weight gain.

Your group needs to read up a bit on the negative effects of splenda..

You can, but most people get Stevia or something like it. I get Stevia or the other thing that sounds like Stevia but actually tastes better. Especially with tea.
