FDA Request via FOIA for Splenda Clinical Trial Results

This request has been sent to the FDA repeatedly since February 27, 2009.  They have acknowledged receiving my request, but to date I have yet to receive the requested information:

Fax to: 301-443-1726

Food and Drug Administration
Office of Management Programs
Division of Freedom of Information (HFI-35)
5600 Fishers Lane
Rockville, MD 20857


Under the Freedom of Information Act, I am requesting the following information on what documentation is available for the safety of use for the artificial sweetener, Splenda.  I would be willing to incur whatever necessary fees to receive this clinical information on the trials and reports of the safety of this product.

Personal Information
Name: Vicky Vinch
Company:  None – I am a consumer
fax: 678 805 1749

I'm interested in learning from you, the FDA, as to how the product
Splenda was approved as a food additive in the US? One can simply Google
"Splenda Toxicity" and can read for days what this supposedly harmless
product is doing to those that consume it.

Thousands of people have reported headaches, muscle aches, dizziness,tingling and numbness of extremeties - many symptoms that mimic MS - and the medical
profession is clueless as to what Splenda can do to a person.

What clinical trials have been done and for how long? What has the FDA done
about the reports it has received on Splenda? Why is this poisonous
chlorocarbon being permitted to be marketed, sold, and added
to so many foods that it boggles one's mind, and it is making people
ill.

Why is there no warning on the label?

Why was this product permitted to be put on the market when we are not able to verify the results of these trials?

Thank you.
