I tried stevia today as a sweetner?
I put a whole pack in and my drink still was not sweet.I thought is was 300 times sweeter then sugar.Should I put in more?Or did I just waist my money.
Answers:
It all depends how sweet you like things, everyone is different.I wanted to try it myself, instead of all the artificial sweeteners out there.I tried to use it for a whole month, but I found it had a weird after taste, and I also experienced more head aches than are normal for me.. In the end I went back to using Splenda, its a sugar derrivative, but doesnt seem to have the negative affects of sugar, or aspartame. Being diabetic myself, there has been no raising of my glucose levels, and I find its aftertaste less objectionable than other products I've tried. Have you thought about using honey or say maple syrup as an alternative?
