If you have been using Splenda, you need to stop using it right away. If you’ve been using NutraSweet or Sweet-n-Low, stop these, too. The reasons are different for each of them and I don’t have place here to explain that more thoroughly. Trust me – DON’T USE THEM. You will thank me later for warning you on time.

You should even consider changing your whey protein formula with one that is natural and doesn’t contain artificial sweeteners and any other chemical compounds.

The only non-nutritive sweetener I use is Stevia – a plant-derived extract with sweetening properties (completely natural, no chemistry). This is also the only sweetener that is not acidic for the body.

Stevia usually costs two to three times the price of the other non-nutritive sweeteners (the ones you should avoid). I’ve found one that is larger in quantity and the price is bareable, too. It's called Stevia Spoonable by Stevita.
