Of course it's bad. It's artificial.

I've read it's bad because it slows down your metabolism because it's not a real food it's doesn't keep your body temperature...?

Aspartame is in Splenda, I think. There are possible connections between Aspartame & certain diseases & death.

Splenda isnt aspartame, its sucralose. Its the nicest of artificial sweeteners but it makes you crave junk food, water retention,

peacelove_CALLIE is right, Splenda is the safest of artificial sweeteners and does NOT have aspartame, but it's still artificial...

I don't know much about splenda, but personally I use Agave nectar. It's sweeter than sugar, and healthier too.
