It is not natural. My daughters and I plus a niece all became very tired and had a hard time just trying to function during a regular work day. My niece actually had changes with her white blood cells. We all quit the stuff. My niece now how cancer of her lymph glands. Maybe the two are not related but who knows? I love Truvia and only hope it is safe. Time will tell. Splenda WILL make you sick especially if you use quite a bit of it as I did several years ago. It is not natural.

Those of you whom are the oxy-moronist (if you will) should probably be quite more concerned about what they are feeding the cows, pigs and chickens you eat before making such bitter/sweet remarks about truvia.

I have grown stevia and also bought a vanilla stevia from the natural market for my coffee. Since I ran out I picked up a box of truvia, it's nasty! I tossed the box and went down to the health food store and got my vanilla stevia liquid again. Yummy and better than sugar. Truvia is not very good.

I also cook with it occasionally. I am a diabetic and it does not affect me at all and never has. I tried truvia when it first came to walmart and I don't like it as it is not sweet at all compared to stevia. i also called the company because it said other natural ingredients. but they would not tell me what those ingredients were. they said it was the companies formula and could not disclose it. I stopped using it because I want to know the whole ingredient not just part of it. Lorraine Kollek I have been using Stevia from Better Herbs for 2 to 3 years now and I love it.

All this truvia is cracka-cola's effort to get products like sweetleaf which is actually made from stevia leaf extract and others off the market. According to this "Swerve Sweetener" its impossible for all these other products that contain Stevia extract without having gone through some sort of chemical process being involed. This character "swerve sweetener" seems to be dumping alot of information to try to reassure people of this truvia product. I sense a cracka-cola propagandist and would suggest people actually looking up all thie information them self. While this character says its impossible to extract stevia without chemicals it forgets to mention Truvia contains rebiana. Rebiana is a product of the stevia plant which according to person would be done through a chemical process chemical. The label Natural flavors is a notorious term in ingredients to hide whats inside. I am not saying that Erythritol isn't what "Swerve Sweetener" says it is. I am saying its a look over hear tactic used to make you feel safe about the product. I am not a spokesperson for any product or group/company. I just hate when people try to manipulate others. ~Michael Smith, random individual In the Marines there is a term “Overwhelming fire power”.

A In-Law does all her cooking ( pies, cakes,etc) with Stevia and serves plenty of people her foods and drinks. No one has any ill effects. I vote for stevia, turvia on the other hand may be over processed and could be a new life form for all we know.
