Okay, SERIOUS question here everyone. I searched the site to see what others said about dizziness, nausea, etc. because I have had these very symptoms along with others for the past few months now and I see that there are A LOT of posts/comments about that very thing. My question is for those of you who've had similar experiences, have you stopped consuming the packets/drinks that contain sucralose in them? And if so, has that eliminated your symptoms? Effective tomorrow, I will be only eating those packets that do not contain this product to see if that helps and was just wondering if anyone else has tried this. Thanks! Editing to say that salt and water are not the issue here. I definitely have my fair share. :)

Every 20 pounds I see a huge drop in blood pressure . Do you get your blood pressure checked ? Low blood pressure can course dizziness. Nausea is usually blood sugar ( glucose ) related. It is very unusual to never had a problem with sucralose and then later in program have problem . But testing it on your self is not a bad thing - just rule the obvious out first .

Thanks so much for your response. I've had SOOO many tests done, 2 ER visits, CT on my heart, MRI on my brain, ENT visits and balance testing, a TON of blood work done and everything is coming back normal. (This is just a few dr office visits I've been to since being on this way of eating). Just trying to rule things out as I go and my coach said it very well could be the sucralose. So, eliminating that to see if there is a change.

If you are not on high blood pressure meds are you consistently taking your potassium?
