Splenda and depression

Yesterday, I made meringues sweetened with Splenda.  Later that night, I noticed that I was feeling a little off and moody.  I wondered if there might be a link to my little snack.  So today I did a bit of research.  Here is what I found:

There were other articles about people having problems with Splenda as well.  I’m thinking maybe anything with any large amount of Splenda may not be a good idea for me.  Those meringues definitely had a lot of the stuff in them.
