What are your thoughts on truvia?
Q. I went to the movies last night and saw an ad for this non-caloric natural sweetener. It seems too good to be true and to advertise food in a movie theater seems a bit odd to me. Truvia is made of a natural plant, stevia, but I don't know if I should trust something that hasn't been approved by the FDA and was developed by The Coca-Cola Company. What are your thoughts on it? I did read the wikipedia page on stevia previously, but I wanted your opinions on it, have you tried it? Will you try it?

A. I tried it this past weekend for the first time in a glass of unsweetened iced tea at a restaurant. I put one packet in and it all sank to the bottom. So I stirred and stirred until it finally dissolved. I didn't taste any sweetness so I added another packet. I ended up adding 4 packets before I could even taste anything. I didn't care much for it. It usually only takes me 1 packet of Sweet and Low for a whole glass of iced tea.

What is the best brand of stevia? (Truvia, Sun Crystals, etc) Is stevia really good for you?
Q. I don't eat sugar. I can't afford the calories. And type 2 diabetes runs in my family. In the past I have used equal and splenda. Until I was informed on how bad they are for your health. So I started buying sun crystals. I don't really use it too much, only in my coffee or on fruit and stuff. Which brand is better? Which brand is cheaper?
Asked by . - Wed Jan 13 14:19:23 2010 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I never buy national brands of stevia. I get mine at Trader Joes. It comes in a plastic bottle with a tiny scoop for dispensing. That way I don't throw away money on individual packets. It contains 622 servings (comparative sweetness) as compared to 622 packet of sugar for about $8.50. That also is the small container. You can get it in larger ones for a cheaper per serving price. I have searched every store and brand within 10 miles of my home in Southern California and Trader Joes is by far the cheapest, in some cases by more than 70% and the only ingredient listed is 100% Organic Stevia Extract (Stevia rebaudiana). If other brands have anything else listed, you're paying for stuff you don't need to be paying for.

Has anyone tried the product Truvia (a new natural sweetener made from strawberries)? If so what do you think?
Q. yes, I know, but it said something about strawberries when I went to the website. I am not looking for know-it-alls,, thanks. I guess I just got confused since a strawberry was advertised on the label. I had already read up about what the plant consisted of. I did not need you to tell me what it was made out of.

A. Finally stevia is being marketed as a sweetener. I am a huge fan of stevia. I've been using it for years. Unlike artificial sweeteners made from chemicals, stevia (Truvia) is a natural sweetener made from the stevia plant. Other natural artificial sweeteners include xylitol and erythritol (both sugar alcohols from fruit), but personally I really like the stevia. In liquid form stevia is very handy. I add it to my tea all the time to make it sweet.

A. It has been around for a while it's just a brand that has come out with sweetener packets. The USDA will not classify it as food, but it is a good alternative to sugar and other fake sweetners. It is very sweet and you easily end up with that fake sugar taste so you have to really watch it, and no it is not cheap. It is pretty spendy. A small bottle of stevia with a dropper is around 10-12 bucks if I remember right.

A. I honestly don't know... From what I understand, when you use stevia in it's natural form, (green leaves), it's fine. However, whenever they start to refine it, there's more chance that it could be harmful. Truvia has 'rebiana' which is some kind of refined form of the stevia leaf. Truvia also has 'erythritol' in it, which is a natural sugar alcohol (a type of sugar substitute). I don't know how safe it is...often they will find out years later that it was harmful. Of course, I don't know anything for sure.

A. It's regular cane sugar that has been less processed. It's not a sugar substitute like truvia. Strict vegans avoid refined sugar because animal bones can be used in the refinement process. If that doesn't concern you, than just use regular sugar. If you want it to be strictly vegan, buy raw sugar. Many supermarkets carry it now, unless it's an ultra low budget supermarket. Or you can find it a Whole Foods or other markets that cater to organic, health-conscious types. Sugar in the Raw is one brand name, but there are others.

Q. I'm doing a research report about chemical sweeteners. My family and I use Stevia and absolutely love it. The aftertaste doesn't bother any of us. When we saw Truvia, we were all very skeptical. I've researched as much as I could and can't find anything really bad about it. In order to market Stevia as a product they must have had to alter the chemical formula somehow.

A. Nope, but it's also a marketing scam--they cut stevia with inert ingredients to keep the price down and increase profits at the same time, much as they do with heroin, hee hee. We use pure stevia (available at good health food stores); its $14.00 price looks high, but you get sweetening for a 7-8-cup pot of coffee out of ONE packet. Truvia can't say that, so the lower price is misleading.

Curious about artificial sweetener, Stevia // Rebiana //Truvia!?
Q. I am an avid user of Splenda, since it does not contain sucralose or aspartame. I am curious about the health benefits and concerns of artificial sweeteners like Truvia that contain their sweet from the Stevia plant in the form of Rebiana... I know that some tests have concluded that aspartame and sucralose have been related to incidents of cancer, but what about Rebiana? I look forward to your answers :]
