Can You Get Yeast Infections From Sucralose?

Can you get yeast infections from sucralose? I started using Splenda a year ago and have had recurring yeast infections every month for 11 months straight. We have ran every blood, vaginal, and std know to man. All of the results came back perfect. The only thing showing up was the yeast infections.

Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that its a coincident that you have fungal infection when you eat sucralose. There is no association between the sucralose intake and fungal infection. May be there is something else that is why showing the result of yeast. I suggest you should think for checking the blood sugar. Having the blood sugar high may cause you vulnerable to yeast infection. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
