sweetners for people alergic to aspartame, splenda equal and n sweet n low
Hello all,
I am alergic to splenda sweet n low, equal and sucralose and things of that nature. of course i am not alergic to good old whtie sugar, and i do not have any dumping from sweets. What types of sweetners are there that i can use for things like coffee ( tried honey not good at all) any help would be greatly appreciated.

I LOVE, LOVE to use Whey Low in my baking. (I use Splenda whenever possible in other cooking...but for BAKING Whey Low is so fabulous.)
It is made from lactose (milk sugar), fructose (fruit sugar) and sucrose (table sugar) but it is designed to hit our blood streams slower and not cause problems. Also has fewer carbs than full-on-sugar.
There is also stevia (Truvia is a good brand). Some can taste a minty after-taste to it, but others swear by this!

i hope you find some answers and find some sweetner products you an use. Just be careful, not all products out there marketed as natural are actually natural, like agave nectar. most agave nectars have higher fructose levels than artificial sweetners. agave nectar is a highly processed sweetner and is actually bad for you.
fructose in most processed foods is actually concentrated fructose. fructose as we know it is actually not from fruits, it is actually man made. the fructose that naturally occurs in in fruits/plants is called levulose. they may all fall under fructose, but they are not the same thing. do not fall for the whole sugar is sugar propaganda. because believe me the body can tell the difference. do your research and i wish u the best.
