July 27, 201213 yr I've searched the topics and couldn't find an answer so I'm throwing it out there to my surgery family. Has anyone ever experienced dumping syndrome from Splenda? If so, what artificial sweeteners work?
July 27, 201213 yr I use Splenda exclusively and I have never had dumping from it. And I've never read of anyone having dumping from it. I guess that it makes a statement that my surgeons office has a Keurig coffee maker in the lobby and the only sweetener they have is Splenda.
July 27, 201213 yr My good friend uses Splenda all the time and is fine. We all have different bodies but this seems to be a consistant.
July 27, 201213 yr I use Splenda, but I try to use half of what I did before the surgery. No dumping from it. If you do, you can try trivia. Splenda is coming out with a new form of sugar that is suppose to be much better for you.

July 27, 201213 yr I dumped off truvia so I guess it's possible. My surgeon said it is possible but not likely. Just gotta try it!
July 27, 201213 yr I dumped on a sugar free Popsicle. I think it was dumping. I had a fast heart beat, sweating and nausea.

DOS: 7/18/12 HW: 273 DOS: 260 CW: 241 Be careful with the brown sugar Splenda - unlike the granulated Splenda, the brown is a blend of real sugar and sucrose. Could result in dumping. Test it before you eat too much.
