Health Tip - Stevia
Since Stevia powder is intensely sweet, we recommend that it be used by “the pinch” or drop if diluted in water.

These glycosides do not get absorbed into the body but rather simply pass through leaving no calories. Stevia a good alternative to sugar or chemical sweeteners as it has zero calories, zero carbohydrates and a zero glycemic index.
