I'm not much of a soda drinker but when I do indulge it's in spurts. Every few months I'll have one or two a day for 2-3 weeks then stop. I have noticed, and have been able to replicate, a side effect that I experience when drinking the stuff. My fingernails split, crack or otherwise become weak/brittle....and I keep my nails short.
I pretty much use Splenda as much as possible but it is NOT made from sugar as their tag line insinuates. It happens to have a component which is common with sugar. Splenda is 100% synthetic.
