Socially struggling
I'm getting a reputation for being a bit of a fanatic in my social circle.

How do you get kids to eat clean?

I will…

Stevia
Apologies in advance if this has already been discussed. What is the consensus regarding stevia? I know it's derived from the stevia plant, yet it's obviously processed when bought in the store. The reason I am asking is because there is a spin instructor at my gym who touts clean eating constantly. She has a blog with…
