Default Website lists Fiberfit as "liquid splenda"

I found this website: http://www.netrition.com/cgi/goto.c...ducts_page.html

and it lists Fiberfit and says the product is sometimes referred to as liquid Splenda since it is sweetened with sucralose. I don't know anything about Fiberfit and the link didn't work.

Does anyone know about Fiberfit?

Thanks,

Patrick

The link worked fine for me just a few minutes ago. Try it again. I'm thinking that I might order some of the fiberfit. According to their website, it has 1 gram of carbs per teaspoon. But each tablespoon has the sweetness of 4-5 tablespoons of sugar with no unpleasant aftertaste. It costs $5.95 for a 4 oz. flip top bottle. They also have a larger size.
I've ordered from Netrition a few times and have been very pleased with them. Thanks for letting me know about this.

Patrick and blessedbei:

I just noticed your posts now and wanted to warn you about my experience with Fiberfit. Someone told me it was another name for liquid Splenda, so I ordered ten bottles online. It turned out that it isn't the same thing at all; it's a high-fiber liquid sweetened with Splenda. It turned out that the fiber in the product gave me extremely unpleasant digestive problems, and I was stuck with ten bottles that I couldn't use. I have since sent them to someone who already used it and knew it agreed with them, but it was an expensive lesson. Later I read a post from someone on this site who listed a source of plain liquid Splenda and ordered some. It was the real thing, but now I can't find the name of the Internet site where I ordered it and can't find the source of my information. It's called "Zero Carb Syrup Base Concentrate" so you might find it by doing an internet search. I'll keep looking too.

I found the website I was looking for to order liquid Splenda. It's expensive but you use it only a few drops at a time and it lasts forever.

I swear by SweetzFree! It's liquid splenda and the measurement equivalents are listed on the little dropper bottle it comes in. Delivery is lightening fast.

I saw that on Netrition as well- totally deceptive advertising by Fiberfit. You should complain, they should give you your money back, and take that off of the site.

I also find Sweetzfree to be very convenient. I find one drop to be perfect for a cup of coffee, but primarily use the liquid for baking. One quarter teaspoon is equivalent to one cup of sugar and has no carbs.
