Default Any good diet drinks using Splenda with NO caffeine?

Just learned that Pepsi One has more caffeine than most other drinks with
caffeine. Caffeine and high blood pressure don't mix too well. So, I am
looking for a good soft drink using Splenda and no caffeine. Can't use
nutra-sweet as it gives me the gitters, and I don't care for it.

Thanks,
ewwhww

Thanks Kate. At the stores in Fort Worth, the only Diet Pepsi that is
caffeine free uses Aspartame, and I can't have that.

It gives me the gitters, and I don't like the taste. Splenda tastes better,
IMO.

I do not claim to know this person's stand on Splenda (Dr. Joseph
Mercola) I merely did a google search for "splenda carbonated beverage"
and picked a site that did not blatantly call it poison. There was
another that was the exact same list (who ripped off whom??) with skulls
and cross bones.

BTW, I use Splenda and like it.

Look for Pepsi One. It always used a mix of aspartame and acesulfame-k,
and strangely tasted like sugared Coke to me. Recent new formulation is
ace-k and splenda. While I love splenda, the old Pepsi-1 tasted better
to me. Worth a try, though.

Pepsi One has more caffeine than Mountain Dew. I have high blood pressure,
so... You know.

Do what you like - but the nonsense written about aspartame
is exactly that - nonsense.

You are severely limiting your food sources as a diabetic.
Similarly, don't get too excited about caffeine unless you
are over-indulging significantly.

You have entered a new game on a new playing field. All bets
are off, you're starting from square one.

Lose your pre-conceptions, start with an open mind. Most of
the things you have been told about fats, carbs, alcohol,
diet, sweeteners, supplements etc over the earlier part of
your life were wrong.

But don't believe me. Do some research of your own, using
Medscape, Highwire, Google Scholar, and your own body.

Also check out subjects like sweeteners, herbals,
supplements etc on Snopes.com, quackwatch.com and similar
sites.


Cheers Alan, T2, Australia.
