Saccharin?

I am getting things together for my trip to Mexico. I will be staying a few days in San Diego before heading home.

I've packed some peppermint tea bags in case of nausea, but wondering if I can use my pink packets of sweet and low or saccharin?

I've read about a lot of artificial sweetners after surgery but can't find anything on Saccharin?

Anyone still use this??

If you like it, use it. Previous studies linking it to cancer have been debunked.

Thank you! I just wasn't sure how my new stomach would react. I've used it for years, so it wouldn't be new..

Everything I've read says it's ok. Couldn't hurt to ask your nutritionist?

Have you tried Splenda? I can't imagine liking saccharin! I know some people must or they wouldn't still sell so much of it...but that's a mystery to my taste buds:)

Yes, I've tried splenda and don't like it. I guess its what you're used to, I've used sweet and low in my coffee and saccharin in my tea for 40+ years!! I was sure hoping I could continue with it, I definitely don't like unsweetend coffee or tea!!

Shouldn't be a problem:)

I use sweet n low and prefer it, no issues here.
