What does my fitness trainer think about NutraSweet and Splenda?
There hasn’t been enough research to definitively answer the debate about artificial sweeteners. Some of my clients have had very bad reactions to them, while others have had no problem. My personal opinion is that it’s best to avoid them. I think a good rule of thumb is to try not to eat anything that didn’t exist before the 1900’s. However, eating NutraSweet and Splenda will not hurt your fat-loss results on this program. There are some recipes included on the site that use Splenda. These are for those of my clients who seem to have no adverse reactions to artificial sweeteners. Even then, you should use them sparingly.
