Do you think those artificial sweeteners can have a bad effect on your body over time. All of these low-carb desserts seem to have splenda, or some other alternative in them. Is this safe?

Re: Artificial Sweeteners...
There have been studies that artifical sweeteners were linked to lupus (I think) and other diseases. My mom knows more about it. I don't know if it is true but I know someone who only uses artificial sweetners and has for many many years. She was just diagnosed with lupus. I try to use Stevia instead of the artificial sweetners whenever possible. You can find it in health food stores. It is an extract from a plant that is very very sweet. It's a healthy alternative although you have to get used to the taste.
