says: I read your announcement about sweetners and you didn't mention my personal favorite--stevia. I purchase it at the healthfood store and use it in my oatmeal or in smoothies in the morning. It tastes great and is 0 calories. It's marketed as a "nutritional supplement" because the FDA requires millions of dollars in tests to market it as a sweetner, then the law doesn't allow the company exclusive rights to sell it after all the testing because it's "natural". Therefore, no companies are willing to put out the money to test when they won't reap the benefits financially later. Other countries have been using stevia for some time with no reported cases of side effects that I have read anywhere. What do you know about stevia's safety?
