Splenda safety concerns

What is the safety of Splenda?

At a high-level generally considered safe. Over the years some concerns have been raised in the following areas 1. Even though it has 0 cal, there is some evidence suggesting increasing insulin levels, potentially worsening glycemic control, and metabolic effects. 2. ⁠ alteration and gut bacteria, which has the potential of longer-term consequences, which are ill understood right now at least as far as outcomes 3. ⁠ no defined cancer risk has been identified. We continue to believe it’s a reasonable alternative to sugar despite the above. Clearly natural sweeteners like the ones we listed yesterday have no currently known risks in the above categories
