But what about Stevia? I have a bottle of liquid Stevia that I use in tea now and then, and it can't really be classified as an "artificial" sweetener, since it's natural. Do you think that using Stevia would cause cravings??


No, you're right, stevia's not an AS and it doesn't affect blood sugars at all. I am a sugar addict. I can't eat AS either, but I use stevia with no cravings whatsoever.

BTW, I really dislike the liquid stevia. It's too hard to control. You might like to find the packets of stevia blends b/c then you can convert your recipes much easier. 1 packet of splenda = 1 packet of stevia blend

Good luck,
Wanda
