[QUOTE="Doarnamor, post: 1876567, member: 393386"] Artificial sweeteners are a tricky game to play. Dr. Bernstein's book says to only use tablet or liquid versions of the sweetners he allows. He says the powdered ones are bulked up with sugar. The Splenda wikipedia entry has this to say: "3.2 packets (3.36 kcal each) of Splenda contain the same caloric content as one packet of sugar (10.8 kcal). Further, Splenda contains a relatively small amount of sucralose, little of which is metabolized; virtually all of Splenda's caloric content derives from the dextrose or highly fluffed maltodextrin "bulking agents" that give Splenda its volume." So if your using the powdered version you might as just use sugar. [/QUOTE]
