Geoff:

You are correct in that some sweetners give people headaches. When aspartame (nutrasweet) was released the FDA began receiving complaints about people getting headaches. I personally know of a man who after drinking large amounts of drinks that contained aspartame got severe headaches. For those of us that suffer from cluster headaches I would consider this a probable trigger and stay away from it. After all, it is called a chemical. Regular soda only has 100 calories and I would think this would not make much difference in so far as calories go. There is (I hear) suppossed to be a new sweetner coming out that is actually made of sugar, the structure being made large enough that it is not absorbed by the body.
