    I have been using stevia for years in tea, coffee, cereals and oatmeal in place of sugar. I have had no side effects at all. Love it and feel safe using it. Scared to death of all the artificial sweeteners. At least stevia is natural. Whole foods sell sodas made with stevia and love them too.

I really like it because it does not have any of the odd taste or aftertaste of other sugar substitutes. I have been using stevia for only about 8 months. I have not had any side effects.

    Comment:
    Been using the pure powder for over 10 pluss years. My thinking is the more sugar i cut out the better for me. I still eat suger products but I use a 2 liter bottle and a couple of tea bags with not even a half teaspoon of stevia and just let it sit out to steep itself. I drink about one or two bottles of this a day with no problems. At night if I drink plain water I get a stomach ache but not if ... Show Full Comment
