ABC News Stevia The 'Holy Grail' of Sweeteners

[Meowbay]

The danger is that the big corporations already are making huge mono-cultures of stevia, which will not only cause to deteriorate the plant's genetic info, it will cause all sorts of problems with pesticide and such. It would be much better if we all grew a couple of Stevia plants in our homes/gardens.

[not2tees]

In Canada it's quite easy to buy your own little stevia plant, put it in the window and watch it take off. You can harvest the leaves, eat them and taste the natural, zero calorie sweetness. Stevia powder from health food stores is itself fine to my taste, I don't need any corporate remakes and relabels.

[martynblackburn1977]

Stevia. Banned in the UK because our corrupt Politicians just love taking the money from the big corporations to fund their lies and bullshit.

[foreverxundefined]

You have FDA pending approval of a natural sugar sweeter with no calories that has been used for hundreds of years in other countries, yet the FDA has approved synthetic sweeteners(aspartame, sucralose) used in products that promote health benefits and actually rick severe side effects(too many to list) But a natural solution gets all this rave and rant that it MIGHT be bad for your health? You have to be a moron not to put two and two together.

WATCH! Dr Burzynski movie!!!!

[israelsito07]

This is the best and most healthiest sweetner you can  find. Stevia is 100 times better than sugar. It is natural. Don't pay attention to all of these fellows that say its bad for your health.

[OTKP]

OF COURSE FDA don't want you to stop using the BAD STUFF

I would rather take my chances with something Natural compared to some ARTIFICIAL CRAP with Chemicals in it that I can't even pronounce

[SnotRockets55]

I'm leery of this stuff, despite everyone singing its praises. I just drank, over the course of a few hours, a beverage chock full of this stuff and honestly I'm a bit sick right now. I've been having strong, arching pains throughout my stomach and entire torso for about an hour now, and my stomach is totally bloated.

[snugindustries]

the FDA is not our friend, remember when they said "DDT is  good for you and me "

[IrishGuy101]

Why are coke and Pepsi waiting in the wings? Well, it's back to origins, Stevia is a similar substance to cocaine which gets you wired. You can snort it or smoke it in its purist form and gives you a buzz or high. Of course these companies are waiting to put it in their product....why would they break a long established, successful recipe with the current sweetner that's widely evailable with a relitively rare substance not farmed yet, unless they wanted to replace it with a legit high drug.

[InfiniteRhombus]

put it like this if that fuck actually got in stevia and stopped being a player? lean and ripply fairly fuckin, no time, the angel maitreya, how does it taste? white bubbly soup?

[scarpycocoful]

stevia plant has been used in central and south america for hundreds of year by the indians to heal people. and by the way if talk about products people there is not one product out there that hasnt been alterd one way or other.

[randomnoone]

just because its natural dose not mean its safe!! here have some high fructose corn syrup or some aspartame the FDA has found them to be "safe", every kid in America is going to be 400 lbs diabetic and have some kind of cancer before they are 40 if we don't smarten up fast and i mean FAST

[randomnoone]

RAW,ORGANIC,SUSTAINABLE,NON GMO,FREE RANGE,FAIR TRADE,HEALTHY! we need to overhaul the food industry in America so vote with your wallets people they will listen when they lose money. write your governor and senator and tell them you want foods that are gmo CLEARLY LABELED OR BAN ALTOGETHER hell even write Obama tell him we must put a stop to Monsanto they are destroying our seeds and agriculture in general with gmo's and bully family farms and sue them out of business and put them in debt,

[SLAYEROWNZ619]

1:00 wrong. stevia is safe because it is all natural and unprossesed like sugar. it is actually 4x sweeter than sugar. 1-2 drops of stevia extract is equivelant to 1 tablespoon of sugar. besides, if it wasnt safe, than people around the world wouldn't even ingest it to begin with :p

[kinfolk321]

punishing themselves by becoming a vegan because the animals are treated badly, that makes a lot of sense. I guess they never heard of grass fed, free range organic meat. But no worries, that just means more steak for me at a lower price. Hallelujah for veganism.

[randomnoone]

@kinfolk321 i am a raw "vegan" i don't do it because of the animals i do it for my own health i just eat raw organic food for the amazing health benefits i still hunt deer and rabbit / small game i don't want to lose the skill because of my diet i just give the meat to family and friends , i may eat meat some day but id never eat red meat again, i just really like the results i get from raw foods,id obliviously eat any cooked meat if i was starving and wasn't able to get raw veggies or fruit

[crackparty]

@randomnoone That's not unhealthy eating fresh wild caught game. If you wanna eat meat and you hunt, just eat the game that you catch. There's alot of vitamins and nutrients you need in meat that can't be found in raw veggies or fruit. I'm sure you know this already, but it's still better than taking supplements. That's cool you know how to hunt, i wish I did. I'd never eat store meat ever again.

On topic, I just bought some stevia sugar replacement yesterday. Tastes great.

[yosoytacoseasoning]

@crackparty

I was only aware of iron and b12...what other vitamins and nutrients are you talking about that you can only find in meat?

[ijasop]

so stevia can cause cancer but aspartame is perfectly safe? I think Peachy the cat would disagree, homeboy

[AirRaidAaron]

Sweet bubbly fountain of youth.

[hughesfan100]

It's simple,just drink purified water and eat whole foods!Stay the fuk away from anything diet or low sugar!!!!!!!1

[ALPHAandOMEGA44]

FUCK THE FDA!

WE NEED A FREE MARKET

STEVIA HAS BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS WHY ARE WE WAITING FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO HELP US!

[xxcelinux]

@wvoutlaw2009 There you go again attacking a Jew. You may not be using any anti-semitic slurs against Jacobson, but the mere fact that Jacobson is a Jew and that you are attacking him makes you a racist anti-semitic right-wing extremist. Your "the joooos created the obesity epidemic" is worse than "the joooos did 9/11" and "the joooos funded the Nazis". Dr. Jacobson is exposing you Nazi fuck stevia shills' modern day gas chambers...stevia.

[PrivateWarrior1]

That guy talking bad about stevia in the middle of the clip has commercial ties to the makers of Aspartame and Saccharin. What a sell out

[xxcelinux]

I just discovered that the Center for Consumer Freedom now shills for stevia. Check the CCF article "The FDA Loves Stevia. Guess Who's Panicking?". All you stevia shills on here are nothing but paid CCF agents.

[itzeyadig]

the government will take anything that is natural and good into garbage and make it bad for you when they say it's good lol!

[wilknight12345]

everything in moderation.

[dekindin]

Stevia is antihypertensive,antimicrobial­, reduces the blood sugar level, etc. Japan uses it for a long time, Stevia makes 40% of the sweetener consume there. Many soft drinks there have stevia insted sugar. The guarani indians use stevia to sweet the mate tee they use. Studies in Brazil and Japan shows that 38,5 Steviosid mg/kg body weight causes no toxic effect.

[itzeyadig]

@dekindin it is a also a mutagen especially rebaudioside A which is what major companies in US are using in products.

[JHandcock1111]

@itzeyadig - Are you serious? re A is the safest form! - with NO side effects WHATSOEVER. You may want to go back to the research and reread it, because you've got it ass backwards - or are you someone employed by the sugar industry?

[CHLOTHARIUS]

stevia is best used from Optimum Nutrition.

[RoderickStrong]

Stay away from WHITE STEVIA, IT'S OVERPROCESSED. Some white stevia powders even have ASPARTAME added. so if you are trying to avoid aspartame or splenda, stay away from certain brands of white stevia

[SuperUnlawful]

Stevia is not white

[kikibortok]

Stevia taste almost like sugar.One problem is those i found in the market was a mix a chicorea and maltodextrine from corn.Maltodextrine from corn is once again a by product of food industries.I finnaly found a bio version of stevia.At least is not fructose or aspartame.

[eheister2006]

taste like sugar

[aslansalive]

"hmm, no licorice"

wow, now that's what i call reporting.

[Jessecraft1954]

I use stevia when I make oatmeal cookies. It's great!

[1515alanruiz]

FUCK YOU BITCK > HHAHA

[1515alanruiz]

that the gov controling the midia again its all codex. Fuck CODEX

[blakasassin1]

i thought they said it was good for u?dieters always say use stevia

[yoyoyobobyobob]

So why is this beautiful herb legal and the cannabis herb isn't? They are both good...

[mgdivad]

@yoyoyobobyobob It's a government experiment to see how obedient we are and a test to see how many rights they can take away.

[TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

Obama needs to ban vitamins for one. And also Stevia. It's not safe.

[1515alanruiz]

@TELEVISIONARCHIVES fuck u . ur prabably paid by the big corps asshole. Ur a bitch. LETS ALL FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM.

[TELEVISIONARCHIVES]

@1515alanruiz Learn to spell . Get an education, then we can talk.

[wilknight12345]

@TELEVISIONARCHIVES are you tell 1515alanruiz to learn to spell? midia=Media? controling=controlling. Or were you just being a funny guy?

[wilknight12345]

@TELEVISIONARCHIVes  why do you say stevia isn't safe? I am looking into something that sweetens besides sugar............

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

Last but not least, everyone be careful of grassroots mentallity .. I was a Raw food vegan and while it was a healthy choice, I also experienced extreme weight loss and my hair was falling out... everything has a purpiose.. all knowledge is powerl... do not be one-sided.

[JHandcock1111]

@Sw1tchBladeMalone-Raw food vegans don't have what you had happen occur if they follow their diet properly, don't carry it to the extreme, and take supplements for nutrients their diet is deficent in. Veganism is silly, imo,as we are omnivores, not herbivores. I think it (veganism and other abnormal diets) comes from a sense of self entitlement and narcissism, especially when over a third of the population of earth are struggling everyday to simply get one meal into their bodies.

[tommiedepew1]

@JHandcock1111 most people i know are vegans because of how the animals are treated by the farms.

[one5iftyone]

Lmao. "just because it natural, doesn't mean it's safe" he wants u to go to aspartame n die.

[marsdiggy]

You can find more information at steviapowderguide (dot) com

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@darthchaosofrspw2009 So does the bleach I use when I clean my counters. I can't live in a Bubble. I seriously doubt I'll croak from a dab of Food coloring. The ammount of time I spend sweating and in the Sauna most likely does away with most Toxins I ingest.

[nirbija]

@Sw1tchBladeMalone "Most likely" NOT!

It is that kind of faulty thinking that unwittingly gives support to criminals of the food industry, who R hell bent on poisoning the nation bit by bit, WHICH ACCUMULATES to make US the sick nation that it is now!

Ever heard the expression, 'death by a thousand cuts'?

This is precisely what is happening to citizens

And the rate of those cuts have been getting faster; so much so that succeeding descendants are having shorter & shorter & sicker lifespan!

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@nirbija What an extremist. In the US, more people are living longer then ever. In 1905, before all of our processed foods, the average human life span was 55 years old.

Your "death by a thousand cuts" analogy was cute, but overbearing. Diet soda didn't exist in 1905, yet my mother, who has been drinking it since it's inception, is living longer then most people did in 1905.

Can we say, Drama queen?

[nirbija]

@Sw1tchBladeMalone First of all, your mother (one individual) IS NOT a representative sample of a population of 300m citizens

Second, more people may have lived longer, but their descendants WILL NOT!

Third, your mom may have lived longer than her that people did in the arbitrary 1905; but you or your descendants HAVE LESS OF CHANCE of improving on your moms age, assuming that she lived a relatively long time

4th, mom may have passed much years but not much commonsense to her offspring. lol

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@nirbija You're an idiot, you know nothing of my gene pool, my mother my diet, my habits, my environment, the chemicals i surround mysel with.. you are just basing all your claims on dogmatic rhetorical assumptions from your confined scope of reality.

FUnny how you can assess my lifespan depending on the mere mentioning of my kool-aid intake... what else do you know, oh wise one?

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@Sw1tchBladeMalone

And yes, America has high standards when it comes to food ratings.. compare the public standards of eating of America to such countries Uganda, Bangledesh, Meixco, or the Phillipines.. better yet, try drinking the water.

I guarentee /

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@nirbija What accredited title do you hold in the health industry, what long term exstensive researches have our done, besides reading vegetarian weekly?

I rest my case.

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@nirbija

I laugh at your fear mongering and unaccredited claims of conspiracy and deciet. Like every system, the FDA has flaws; but what if there was no FDA? We'd have bacteria, salmonella, cross contaimination, and lower food standards across the country.

[nirbija]

@Sw1tchBlade First of all, your mis-education leads you to wrong thinking about the role of the FDA

The bench mark for national food security is not 'if there was no FDA'!

The correct benchmark is the abundant knowledge base that now, which can be applied to make Americans some of the healthiest citizens on the planet!

If you can understand how BUSINESS PEOPLE & their POLITICAL PROSTITUTES in government brought Great Recession to US, then you might understand the 'deceit' with FDA politicians

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

@nirbija I am not saying the food industry is loaded with crappy additives like MSG, PHSO, Aspartame, ect; I am saying, individuals who utilize a small portion of ingredients are not doomed to a shorter life span.

Many people who smoke, drink, and have sub-par eating habits live well into their 80's and 90's.

[nirbija]

@Sw1tchBlade I know exactly what your are 'saying'!

And you are just dead wrong!

'Small portions' of poisons & pollutants, ADD UP OVER TIME to alter the natural state of material, structure & function of the body! This leads to disease & early death!

That was why I used the wise Chinese phrase 'death by a thousand cuts': One relatively 'small' cut will not kill immediately; but add a 1000 of those, & U die!

& YES! Some people may not die!

However, AVERAGE citizen WILL HAVE shorter lifesapn!

[biped19]

Aspartame is classified by the government as a "chemical weapon." Stevia is not. Saccharine was propagandized by the government, and corporate media, as being a "Carcinogen." Not true. What the government wanted, and Donald rumsfeld for that matter, was Aspartame to be approved in order to enrich their stock portfolios in the patent, and for population control/reduction. Nice. The FDA, like the SEC, MMS and other government agencies, is corrupt beyond recognition.

[billybbob18]

sTEVIA IS waaaaaay HEALTHY. Stevia was also reported to help normalize blood pressure.

I use it every day.



[ERIKSREALITY]

I think Aspartame is better tha Stevia,It helps on killing me better.

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

BEATS HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP!!!!!!!

[Sw1tchBladeMalone]

Just bought a Box of Stevia, with Kool-Aid, and Tonic water. Gonna make my own Diet Sodas! :)

[ucdruby]

Damn it. Everything is so controversial and unhealthy. I think i'm going live in a hole and eat plants.

[TrueGreatness73]

FDA stands for Fake Division Association. They dont give a shit about you, they are just trying to get paid. How many things have the FDA passed and has got recalled due to many deaths and sickness??? When something natural and healthier comes out and they dont have a way to tax it they say it is hazardous to your health and make it illegal. LMAO fuck them bitches. Herbs such as this is healthy for you..

[biped19]

@TrueGreatness73

You got it!

That agency along with all the other government "watch dogs" (really "lapdogs") need to be GUTTED, and replaced. That of course will only happened AFTER the rebellion.

[xxcelinux]

@FictitiousMinds He's a lunatic conspiracy theorist who believes "globalist bankers created the obesity epidemic". He's a Alex Jones teabagging troofer who uses his anti-semitic obesity denial - he calls it "obesity truth" - troof movement to shill for the Center for Consumer Freedom. He likes to bitch about Truvia and PureVia being corporate black-ops against stevia, but he's the one giving Truvia and PureVia free advertising. He's quite the shill.

[xxcelinux]

@darthchaosofrspw2009 Stevia users are whackjobs, whackjob. And your conspiracy theory post proves it.

[TheSterbloemjolanda]

where can i buy a plant or leafs from stevia?

[0hypnotoad0]

I've got a stevia plant. If you nip off a tiny bit of a leaf, the flavor from just that is so intense it almost burns.

[TheSterbloemjolanda]

fluid bio organic usda taste wonderfull, just one drop is enough, in natureshops

taste better than sugar by SteSweet stevia germany gmbh without alcohol

[TheSterbloemjolanda]

fluid bio organic usda taste wonderfull, just one drop is enough, in natureshops, taste better than sugar , by SteSweet stevia germany gmbh, without alcohol

[antiwiggar]

Oh so it is unsafe to consume stevia but it is completely fine to consume aspartame. This is a joke.

[xanthrax4]

but how's dan quinn gonna make his fortune if everyone already has stevia?

[torofighter]

cancer? From stevia? what a fuckn joke. Stevia is far safer than saccharin, aspartame, and splenda. Coke and Pepsi won't completely overhaul their aspartame-laden diet colas for stevia colas because stevia isn't addictive like aspartame.

[kooslap]

Coke, Pepsi and other corporations involved in paying off the FDA that benefits them and not the consumers should always be a concern for all of us. Their "own versions" most likely means they did something to the original stevia plant as to lower their manufacturing costs while putting our health in danger...no different than what they did and are doing with MSG, aspartame, sucralose/Splenda, etc poisons they're shoving into all of our foods. Stick with non-big-corporate original stevia plants.

[1993717jew]

i was thinking of salvia

[1993717jew]

its been proven to cure cancer and HIV

[Combeh]

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[Soldier957]

@1993717jew

WOot!? Where can I read more on that?

[1993717jew]

@Soldier957 "We think that drugs derived from the active ingredient could be useful for a range of diseases: Alzheimer's, depression, schizophrenia, chronic pain and even AIDS or HIV.

—Viren 2007-08-23 (US Media)" "Clinical pharmacologist John Mendelsohn has also said:

There may be some derivatives that could be made that would actually be active against cancer and HIV [...] At the present time, there are a lot of therapeutic targets that have many people excited."

[XxPnuemaxX]

TRUvia, PUREvia, Sun crystals, stevia in the raw, every stevia sweetener on the market that isnt PURE STEVIA EXTRACT (except for maybe liquid stevia or flavored stevia) it DILUTED with sugar or alcohol or chemicals! It's totally deceiving!

[alkapone187]

HAHAHAHAH

that FDA FUCK had me laffing my ass off

can you believe the ridicule this asshole is saying that shit is atrocious and miss leading to the public who wants an alternative sweetener for a healthier lifestyle. I really want to know how much is he getting paid for that garbage that as spewing out of his mouth, their has been ZERO effects on taking stevia while aspartame and sucrolose our one of the top 10 toxic junk known to man.

[crackaboo]

WAR DAN QUINN!!!

[windsavvy]

Beats asparteme if u ask me =p

[TheStrix]

The secular elite really never fail to anger me with the audacity of their actions. I had no idea these connections existed and, assuming their viability, they really disturb me. I don't think that the financial elite, the imperial families that have the most say in the world, can ever really be gotten rid of completely, but I will say that this is why it's worth it for everyone to do their own research on both health and politics. Thanks for the response.

[babystinky]

Stevia tastes terrible with tea or coffee though. Its good with cereal.

[YumeWire]

Stupid FDA and Splenda should be any bettter??!!

[mreisma]

cancer my ass, who was that idiot ?

[katydig]

FDA stands for Fraud & Deception Assholes! Read Kevin Trudeau's books "Natural Cures They Don't Want You To Know About". There are countless government agencies who's real purpose is to rubber stamp big corporations' toxins and stamp out good products.

[dougontheinternet]

I like how the FDA is like STEVIA BAD ASPARTAME GOOD RAWR!!!

[indigochild290858]

oh how great :::........america uses aspartam ( thank you mr ramsfeld ) nut stevia is making cancer...america is so funnnnnyyyyy,-........!!!

[TheStrix]

The guy in the video talking about the risks is such a joke... he says take the miniscule (and looking at the models for the tests used to show these risks, nonexistant) risk to one person and multiply it through the population. What the hell does he think would happen if we multiplied the risk for cancer, obesity, brain disease, and sterility when looking at aspartame?? Don't mean to rant, but I mean he really shot himself in the foot imo.

[JoshuaRamires]

Stevia is good for you, the FDA is a load of bull shit

[zanxter]

The pigs with money are so mad they didn't think of stevia and its processed products first. As soon as they're ready to convert from cane and other sweeteners, to cash in on stevia. Listen. Just listen how all these 'safety issues' will die down.

Those idiots could care less about our safety.

[cremington10]

I just ate some and grew a tail and an extra nipple

[Lathanthol]

I only use normal sugar stuff, drink cows milk, eat white bread and processed meat with sugar additives.. all FDA approved and you know what? I've had 2 malignant tumors in the past 12 years.

If I had known tobacco is coated with sugar before, I wouldn't have smoked it.

Think i'll try this stevia stuff. Maybe some d-9 THC extract as well, hear that cures cancer and prevents Alzheimer's.

[thoostorm4]

@cremington10 NOWIWANTTOSEE THATGIR LLOL

[TheCaptainLulz]

it grows absolutely fabulous in central ontario. I got a 3 foot plant this summer and Im gonna grow more next year. it tastes sweeter than heaven.

[xaylus]

@TheCaptainLulz omg dude that's awesome.. you're able to let it grow that tall. lol I'm jealous xD man, just ordered mine from sweetleaf. can't wait for it :D

[TheCaptainLulz]

@xaylus I can buy it every year at the grocery store's garden center. Its sold potted as a herb.

[dreamshooter90]

Stevia is NOT SHUGGAR. It's is own plant! =) Not all stevia plants taste good. But the ones that do taste bether than shuggar!

That stuff about mutation is just bullshit.

[StoneOz]

Safer then Sugar. Awesome!

[Capricornboy]

f*ck the FDA!!!! as if sorbitol or aspartane or artificial colouring is safe!!!!!!!!!

[XXTheRealMcCoyXX]

"Just because it's natural doesnt mean it's safe" No! Really? what makes you say that?? Whats Natural about half the garbage found in the super markets now a days? You still havent banned the use of trans fats or high fructose corn syrup but your scared that Stevia which has zero calories and has been used for hundreds of years might be harmful? Youre having a laugh!

[dreamshooter90]

I agree. Read my comment on [ Stevia works!!! ] by SteviaPlaya

[jewie27]

@XXTheRealMcCoyXX Weed is natural, doesn't mean it's good to smoke it.

[SexxyMessiah]

@XXTheRealMcCoyXX not to mention that Aspartame is still on the market despite it proven to cause or contribute to several diseases, including cancers, and several mental illnesses

[hilde86m]

they abviously dont want people to be healthy...

[ItalianDude88Returns]

Does anyone know if you can purchase stevia in health stores in Canada?

[ChristiansMustLearn]

Stevia rocks...the FDA will limit its usage because the sugar industry will probably weigh in and kill the idea until they cna own it.

[panthera50]

Using it for 1500 years seems prove enough to me. :-))

Didn't see anyone drop dead in Paraguay and Brazil from it.

No: aspartame is better huh ? :-((((

Makes more money for Rumsfeld.

[InSaneTK]

Stevia, coconut oil, coconut cream and cocoa beans. Mix it together and you got yourself; believe it or not.. Healthy chocolate!

Almost to good to be true. But this time... it IS true.

[hilde86m]

thanks, im gonna try this!!

[mLOProductions]

HAHAHAHAHA!! Waiting for approval, yet the FDA approved of high-fructose corn syrup as a sweetener....LMAO. They've also approved of MANY chemicals (which do NOT exist in nature) in foods. Apparently low doses of these synthetic chemicals is safe, so funny!!!

[XXTheRealMcCoyXX]

lol, what the hell is wrong here!?

[LiveWellAmerica]

consider using Agave Nectar - not as sweet but fewer complications and is Diabetic friendly with essentially no glycemic load.

[LiveWellAmerica]

Stevia has a very strong link to problems with the female reproductive - much like processed sugar. All sweeteners should be used only when absolutely needed.

[InSaneTK]

This is misinformed information based on dishonest lab tests done in favor of the sugar industry.

They tested stevia on lab rats in quantities that would equal a human eating 35 kg (77 pounds) of stevia daily. A dosage where any product, even water would kill you.

Stevia is a herb that is almost 300 times sweeter then sugar, it has no calories and it doesn't cause addiction! It is as of this moment accepted as a healthy nutrition. Stevia have shown to treat several illnesses by current studies

[nheri03]

its really safe.. i agree..

[NoirHammer]

Let's see how hard the sugar lobbyist come out swinging this time.

I use stevia with erythritol in "all" my baking needs as well as an everyday sweetener. Get the extract in powder form.

[MekaGabe]

this is bullshit. self perpuating bullshit.

[NWforager]

...already approved dude .

[dreamshooter90]

Micheal Jacobson is being A idot for saying something like that. The frikkin shuggar industry is paying the FDA! That guy just shit on his own lap!

[dreamshooter90]

I ment WHO... Whatever it was agein.. Ahh.

Whatever! USE STEVIA! WHOOOOOO101o01oo1oOo1o1o10!!

[Seyahhsod]

And does not cause cancer!

[morethansalt]

Stevia tastes like licorice root to me. I WANT to use it, and I keep on trying it in my tea and coffee, but it has an awful aftertaste that I just can't get over.

[Seyahhsod]

Not to me, I used it in my coffee and mmmmm mmmmmmmm good. I was just about to give up coffee.

Its rather "funny" how the FDA approved aspartame and saccharine and they have both been linked to cancer....

GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK!

They are not going to approve this without some serious control.

[conphuse]

no bad aftertaste huh? good thing you determined that in half a second flat.... maybe somebody should tell that lady what AFTER taste is

[spiritofexellence]

God bless you son!

please forgive me if i came off as trying to make you watch my video's. In no way was I trying to force people to watch them.

I pray that God blesses you with the abundance of the lord.

Thank you!

Janet

[chinoloc619]

dan fucking quinn baby!!!!

[rhythmatheart]

the FDA has been bought off a long time ago. You know how many products today use sugar? Stevia will blow sugar out of the water. And the FDA is trying to protect that which does not make us healthy. They are a big joke. All those damn government agencies are a joke. Bought off by big corporations.

[arismommy2]

PROCESSED FOODS ARE AWFUL!

Genetic Mutations?!?!?! LMAO

The FDA has their head up their ass!!

Herbs have been around for CENTURIES! are they kidding me HERBS ARE SUPER SAFE!

[stube105]

We best research now to find out the truth about processed foods and GMO's. I have been reading and researching a lot and basically everything that we eat from the store is not good for you. Natural is the best way to go.

[arismommy2]

ABSOLUTELY!! I am glad some1 has done their research the more you uncover it'll blow your mind!! Read Kevin Trudeau's what they don't want you to know about..Its a great book, its what got me started on my natural way of eating and away from prescription meds!! EVerybody needs to READ READ READ! I can not stress it enough!

[charlesmartin82]

Dog shit is natural but I don't think it's a good idea to eat it. Thanks

[mark91345]

cute!

[blaafugl]

@stube105

I have come to the same conclusion as you have Stube105. After two years of intense studying into our food and how we manufacture it.

Right now, I got three Stevia plants standing in my window. And they are having a very good time up here in the northern climate. Everyone should just grow their own sweeteners if they are so absolutely dependent on sweet food..

[CHUCKYCASPER]

I use raw Stevia, but I'm wondering if when its added to the products if it'll be the same or will it be processed like Sucralose (Splenda) and Aspartame (Equal).

When I saw that they are now putting it in Coke, I am wondering if it will lose some of its health benefits. I will be doing some research on that as well. I will post my findings as soon as I can.

Everything that has been genetically altered or processed in some form, loses some of its benefits.

No, It wont be processed like carcinogenic aspartame, sucralose and other poisons!
