It is, as you said, an easy plant to grow, and extracting the sweetness into stevia drops or powder yourself is also an easy process in your own kitchen, for a pure, healthy product.

I think it is very important that you check out ingredients and know as much as you can about any thing you eat. The big corporations are going to take a pure healthy product and ruin every time.Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays Blog Hop!Marlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02280098161046215896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977483836573978520.post-39319398158029830862014-04-21T08:18:52.116-04:002014-04-21T08:18:52.116-04:00I like Stevia better than the all chemical packets...I like Stevia better than the all chemical packets, I now like the monk fruit extract too.

This is not unhealthy at all. And I have not had a regular of diet soda for 2 years now and my health has improved significantly. The good Dr has written a book he is selling on line and is trying to protect it's integrity rather than giving full information here. Do not give up on Stevia because of this biased information.
