You have to watch Stevia brands. They add stuff to it. And it'll say on the
box or whatever; That they do it on recommendation of the FDA of some such
bologna. A lost of times they use the "tols" which have a sky high glycemic
index. The only Stevia I have found that does not add anything to their
Stevia except fiber is Sweetleaf Brand. Every single other company adds
stuff. And I can't figure out why. Stevia is already sweet. Why are they
adding another sugar to it, one that's worse than table sugar for your
glucose levels? It doesn't make any sense, especially if it's only allowed
as a supplement.

Try stevia. You can make your own tinctures from organic stevia leaf
powder
or try the extracts available at your local organic food store.

Has anyone tried erythritol as a calorie free sweetener? Looks
interesting, expecially since it is not artificial, but a naturally
occurring sweetner.

Marshall,
I don't think there's any "free ride" with sweeteners. Dr. Jerry Tennant
says to avoid all sweeteners with "tol" in them, and I tend to agree with
him. They are toxic to the body.
I do use xylitol, however, as a mouthwash.
