this stuff nothing to play around with; avoid it! not only is it poisonous but it can actually lead to greater weight loss than sugar.

Try agave, maple syrup, or stevia

Mercolola. Stop fear mongering, or at least find a credible source.

Better stop eating bananas, tomatoes and chicken then...
You know what is a good sweetener? Sugar (sucrose). Brown and white. Only 15 kcals per teaspoon. Delicious.0 -
Mercola is one of the biggest quacks out there. I wouldn't believe anything that man says.0
