miked10270 0 #1 October 10, 2008 THIS IS NOT ANOTHER SARAH PALIN THREAD !!!! Does anyone know of an artificial sweetener on the market which is safe? My youngest has an Aspartame intolerance (it makes him act like a wholly unguided missile) along with his ADD & mild Autism. Yet, it seems that artificial sweeteners are all over the place in one form or another - particularly in kids food. So... any advice would be appreciated. TIA Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode.

christelsabine 1 #3 October 10, 2008 Of course no sugar. Try pure honey in small doses. My youngest was diagnosed with ADHS. I made all by myself: bread, spaghetti, even ketchup - a lot of work. All w/o any sugar, not to talk about additives! If necessary, just a drop of honey. And it worked out so fine. We used that kind of diet for years. Hardest times were over when he as about 12. But, still today he does avoid sugared food, never ever is drinking coke or similar soft drinks. Mineral water, a beer - he's a young man now, that former fidgety boy! - but, still I'm preparing ketchup and bread by myself. Without any sugar, any sweetener. Ask the paediatrist, he'll know. dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cumplidor 0 #4 October 11, 2008 Stevia is a natural herb which is available in various health food stores. It was made illegal in the 90s by the USDA/FDA under pressure from the makers of the artificial sweetners, but that was rescinded after other countries proved it safe.
