Isn't aspartame different?       10/31/07 11:17 AM Edit Reply Quote Zara Reged: 06/07/06 Posts: 883 I was wondering about this myself. Sweeteners such as splenda or sorbitol aren't absorbed by our bodies and that's why they have zero calories. But that's also why they're trouble. However, aspartame is absorbed (hence the warning about phenylketonuria). Well wouldn't that mean that it may affect us but not our GI tracts since there's nothing left of it in our GI tract? -------------------- IBS-C, bloating, cramps pregnant Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
