Has anyone ever heard of or used Stevia?
Its this natural sweetener that is really good. I bought some at Trader Joe's and its really good.
I got this from www.SteviaCanada.com
What is stevia? A shrub native to Paraguay, used for over 1500 years by the native Guarani Indians. A herb with an abundance of positive effects. The whole leaf contains numerous phytonutrients and trace minerals and is much sweeter than sugar with out negative effects. It can sweeten any drink with no calories, no carbohydrates, no tooth decay and is diabetic safe. Stevia nourishes the pancreas and does not raise blood glucose levels, making it not only safe for diabetics but also beneficial. Since there are no calories or carbohydrates, stevia is an excellent weight loss aid. It does not contains the negative side effects reported with the use of artificial sweeteners including aspartame. Adding stevia to your diet on a regular basis, it has also been reported that it can help minimize hunger sensations, cravings for sweets or fatty foods, aide in digestion, decrease hypertension without effecting normal blood pressure, stabilize blood glucose levels, shorten recovery time from cold and flu and aide in addictions to tobacco and alcohol. When used in toothpaste or mouthwash, cavities and gum disease is reduced due to its antibacterial properties.

I used a teaspoon or so in a pitcher of iced tea and the tea was NASTY! 
I told my friend what I did...and she laughed at me and said you only have to use very very little...
did I goof? What part of my post did you question? Sorry about that. 
He loves it and is always asking for one
When we're out eating I tell him if he doesn't order a soda I'll make him a root beer when we get home, as a incentive
