There are dozens of Stevia products now coming onto the market, most aimed at food processors. The FDA was holding up GRAS for high dosage study because they are well aware of the way Americans abuse any good thing. "If ten milligram is good, 1000 milligrams must be really good!"

Just seeing some health nuts bantering about how Stevia is a serious poison... etc. I was just wondering if ADM/Cargil had sponsored a research project/study and found Stevia to be worse than saccharin or agent-orange... or some such crap.

So... what is the *DEAL* with Stevia now? - (folkert) - (9) - Aug. 1, 2010, 08:48:17 PM EDT
