Black Tea is good too. Though it does not have as many antioxidants as greeen tea, it still has a bunch.

As for the side effects of Splenda, I'm a little worried, but I'm still using it. I don't think it can be any worse that saccharin or aspartmine (sic?). If you do the same side effects google search on those, you'll find problems with them too. As I said in the women's forum splenda thread, I drink a ton of splenda with my iced tea.

I'm convinced that it's less risky for me to eat splenda than use the equivalent amount of sugar instead. A cup of sugar is a lot of calories that my body doesn't need, plus regular sugar makes me feel tired because of it spikes blood sugar levels.
