Divine Winds, that page is filled with utter bullshit. Some choice quotes, showing a complete lack of understanding of chemistry or biology:
Hello! Allergic to chlorine atoms themselves?
What do DDT [4,4'-(2,2,2-trichloroethane-
1,1-diyl)bis(chlorobenzene)] and sucralose [1,6-dichloro-1,6-dideoxy-BETA-D-fructofuranosyl-4-chloro-4-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranoside] have in common? Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and chlorine atoms?
I don't think these people realize the difference between atoms and molecules.
So, I jumped on the internet and did a search for it and found your article. In the meantime I was heaving and feeling even worse. Well, I am allergic to chlorine, as well as having a liver that doesn't function very well (I take a natural supplement called "Lipogen" for liver support as prescribed by my ND), and when I saw what you had to say about sucralose, I figured that was what was causing it.
Hello! Allergic to chlorine atoms themselves?
According to Consumers Research Magazine "Some concern was raised about sucralose being a chlorinated molecule. Some chlorinated molecules serve as the basis for pesticides such as D.D.T., and accumulate in body fat. However, Johnson & Johnson emphasized that sucralose passes through the body unabsorbed."
