Does anybody know anything about it?
It's organic, it's sweet and I've been told it does not contain the proprieties that sugar has(rising your insulin level,or should I say SPIKING IT!!!)
Just wondering...


Other thing,the spelling could be wrong sorry

I'm using Stevia (correct spelling ) now. It's supposedly 300 times sweeter than regular sugar. A sample conversion is 1 cup of regular sugar = 1 tsp of Stevia. 1 bad thing about Stevia is there are alot of brands out their that has a bad aftertaste. I've found that NOW brand Stevia is pretty good.

Rob Faigan speaks highly of it (in comparison to other types of sweetners).

Thanks guys for the feedback and da proper spelling,I think it will become my sugar substitute.

Is it best in the powder or liquid form ?

Or is there a difference?(Processing/whatnot )

It's an excellent sweetner, dry or liquid! only problem is that it does NOT taste good in "hot" beverages!

NOW (as BD said) and Wisdom of the Ancients are the best tasting.

I've had both liquid and powder form. I like the liquid form the best because it dissolves better. I use it to make sweet tea and the powder form doesn't dissolve as good. (little clumps of it at the bottom). But the only fallback to the liquid form is it's in an alcohol base, which is fine with most people but my wife is pregnant so I can't use that type.
