Why is Splenda being taken off the market?
442803
Splenda is NOT being taken off the market.  There is simply a group called "Citizens for Health" that are asking the FDA to remove its approval of the sweetener.

Splenda is the way to go.

On the news, they had featured this thing.  At a health store, such as Vitamin World (I think), they had cleansing products for around $10.  The best thing is to stop all together.  DRUGS ARE BAD!

There were tests done that say it isn't healthy and can cause a multitude of problems, but everyone has to drink their diet soda to make up for that candy bar they ate earlier... not me though, purity is my stance or at least as close as possible

there were lots of hits when I searched megafoods, none appeared to be a legal note of going out of business. This website has their phone number, you can try to get in touch, good luck

http://www.medscape.com/medline/abstract/8536808\n\nI did a search of the word in your question and this is one of the top four sites that came up.\nIt should give you info to start understanding what it means.\n\nI am a cancer patient and have tried to make heads or tails of the conflicting data about artificial sweetners but it can be confusing.\nI was told that "splenda" which is made from sugar is better than the other replacements but just a few days ago found info that says it can be harmful too so I don't know anymore what to use.

Generally, when a manufacturer makes something have less fat, they increase the sugar, and that's not good for you.  You really just have to read the nutrition facts label and skim/scan the list of ingredients for things you're trying to avoid.

Saccharin was recently removed from a government list of potential cancer-causing agents.\n \nSucralose has a brand name of Splenda, and is made from rearranged molecules. The FDA looked for carcinogenic, reproductive and neurological effects of usage and found none.

It's definitely constitutional.  If the students want to drink soda or eat candy, all they have to do is buy it off school property.  The school is simply saying that they won't provide the point-of-sale anymore.

Don't let it get to you honey!  Remember, it's nothing but a bunch of 1's and 0's!! ;)\n\nAlso, in cases when I've run out of coffee and needed that all important jolt of caffeine:  munch on chocolate-covered espresso beans then follow with a tracer of Jolt soda.  \n\nActually while you're the market, can you pick up some tofu for me? I ran out. :)))))\n\nKeep smiling! :)

Cannot document this infirmation.  If you have more information, please share.

I'd go with Equal.  I've had diet lemonade with splenda as the sweetener and it was probably the most God awful thing I have ever had to drink.

i dont think so...products that contained ephedra were lifted off the market until it was ephedra free...now they contain a product similar to ephedra only without the side effects and possiable fatalities.

One major downside is the stimulants that many diet pills, drinks and bars have in them.  Another thing to be wary of is that they don't always list all of their ingredients.  I went with a shake from a company called Herbalife.  It was supposed to be just a nutrient shake (like Ensure, only cheaper).  What was  not disclosed to me was that one of the herbs was MaHuang (Ephedrine ... one of the components of FenFen).  That is 10 times worse than caffine!  It landed me in the hospital with a heart attack one week ago today after only one week of using it.  Never use Ma Huang or Ephedra (Ephedrine).  It can cause heart issues and stroke even if you are healthy.  Many other diet trends can deprive your body of full nutrition.  The safest, best and most effective way to lose weight is eat smaller portions and moderate exercise.

The most recent spike in prices is due to the elimination of MTBE as an oxidiant in gasoline. The rules protecting the seller from lawsuite over MTBE change on May 5. There is a serious concern there might not be sufficient ethanol to make up for the MTBE loss.

No it's not the government but other companies who add stuff to your food like Nutrasweet in all the diet drinks and diet products and they never test the long term effects.  They are just trying to make more money.  If you can't pronounce it, don't eat it.  Keep it natural as possible.

ephedra is back on the market, it's been back for a while now. but places like gnc don't carry it. Look to smaller health and nutrition joints
