I've only (accidently) tried Sucralose (Splenda) and it gave me chest pains when I woke up in the mornings until I stopped. Not a good feeling. My heart beat also went crazy when I took caffeine while I was using Sucralose daily. Aspartame (Equal) apparently has more complaints to the FDA than everything else combined... I don't care how many organisations claim it is safe, something with that many complaints can not be safe and I wouldn't go near it. Sweet and Low is Saccharin.
I really don't think anyone should go anywhere near artificial sweeteners.. there is just so many claims of problems as a result of seemingly every artificial sweetener and it's almost common knowledge that they are bad for you. If the FDA and its equivalences cared more about health than money at least some of them would be banned, surely. Don't assume they are safe just because they are classed as "generally safe". If you are still unsure just google them and read up until you are too scared to use them.
