Hello, I have been using Sweetleaf Stevia (organic, now) for probably 12 years without problems. If you take a lot, you may not like the taste, but I use the liquid drops for my Coco Mojo every morning and at our house, we cook and bake with it. No side effects and always tastes great!

Hello, I have been using Sweetleaf Stevia (organic, now) for probably 12 years without problems. If you take a lot, you may not like the taste, but I use the liquid drops for my Coco Mojo every morning and at our house, we cook and bake with it. No side effects and always tastes great! I do not have diabetes, but do have a serious Chromium Deficiency, which may make me more susceptible. Nothing seems to resolve the Chromium Deficiency! SO I take care by taking lots of Chromium and 1-3 Berberine capsules everyday. Works for me. PLUS, if you do have trouble with the taste of Stevia, try mixing the tiniest amt. of sugar in the recipe with mostly all Sweetleaf Stevia, and it will taste like natural sugar!! Makes great gelatin desserts and jams, cobblers, everything!! However, we ONLY use SWEETLEAF brand, as recommended by famous nutritionist, Anne Louise Gittleman. :-) Joyce E.

Stevia is starting to show up in many foods as a sweetener. I have now seen 3 people have severe psychotic episodes within 2 minutes of ingesting the sweetener. In two of cases the stevia was listed as a 'natural flavor' and I had to call the company to confirm what was in the drink or candy bar.

Have been sampling protein powders and whenever I have one with Stevia, my mouth swells up for 30 minutes or so. Then I feel queasy for a while. It's not a severe reaction but it's not pleasant and I hate the aftertaste anyway. I'd rather have unsweetened or honey.
