Who Uses Stevia

I use Truvia, I love it. I just get it at the regular grocery store. I also like Sun Crystals (sugar and stevia) but apparently give me even a hint of real sugar and I want to eat junk all day. Sheesh.

you can order it on amazon

I also use sun crystals. It has a touch of sugar and is 5 cal. per packet. I don't love it like real cane sugar but it's the best tasting sugar substitute IMO. I get mine at regular grocery store. Fareway around my area but I would imagine most will carry it or something very similar like Truvia.

I use it too, for everything pretty much. Works for me and its better than most of the alternatives

I use Truvia and love it. I think it takes less Truvia to achieve the level of sweetness I like than it does something like Splenda, but that could just be me. I get mine at Walmart. I use it in smoothies or tea, on oatmeal or sprinkled over fresh fruit. Idk if its ok to bake with if thats what youre interested in so you may want to check that out.

It's a plant based sugar so it's all natural. Just do some research on different brands because I've read a few articles that say that Truvia has some additional chemicals in it that aren't so good for you. You can also buy the plant yourself and grow it.

It took the FDA awhile to finally approve Stevia, but it is the better option! Stevia is a natural plant extract while Spenda is a synthetic sweetener made with chemicals. Check out your local health food store and they will have powder or liquid Stevia. It might be a little pricey, but you use just a very little bit of it to sweeten stuff. It goes a long way! The health food store here actually even has flavored Stevia...like Stevia with orange extract in it or vanilla and several others.

Use it in my green teas every single day. Use the Walmart "Equate" right now, but I think I'll be switching back to Krisda, as it doesn't have the maltodextrin like the walmart brand....just costs double.

I use it...love it in tea (herbal chai--mmmmm!...green tea...), to sweeten plain yogurt (add a touch of vanilla and top with some chocolate sauce as a dessert), to lighten the sugar load when making recipes like chocolate chip cookies...

I have been using it for years. I got it online or health food store. It has just recently, last year or so, been approved my FDA to sell in regular grocery stores. It has a little different taste at first, but after using for a bit all you taste is the sweet.

To me its great in green tea, lemonade, and some coffees. Its the best way I have found to avoid drinking too many calories.......but honestly Ive been sticking to water mostly.

I actually started an herb garden this spring and planted Stevia, which is starting to come up pretty nicely now. Does anyone have any experience with using it in its most natural form?

I use Stevia. I even grow it!

I also use Stevia in the raw.

Here is one of my new stevia plants I just planted! I have 6 of them growing new thing year. My only problem is my son likes to eat the leaves!

I have some growing for the first time, but what do you do once it's grown? how do you get the sweetness out of the leaves and into your foods?

I use Steva in the Raw to sweeten smoothies, oatmeal and tea. Love it.

I like it a lot, it has such a real-sugar taste that I can sprinkle it on fruit for a dessert and it has no aftertaste. I have read that some people have taste-receptors that make it taste bitter, so apparently you either like it or you don't based on your biology. I can get mine at any grocery or walmart, and I live in a really small town. also health food stores sell a pure stevia product without any of the added chemicals if that matters to you.

My favorite is to make whole-berry cranberry sauce using frozen berries available all year now, and stevia. I think the entire bag of raw berries has like 50 calories or some ridiculous number, and they are so good for you in so many ways!
