Maintaining a healthy diet can be the toughest on those of us that have a sweet tooth. However, there’s no need to shun sweets altogether. Instead of sugar reach for a handy bottle of liquid or powdered stevia to flavor your oatmeal, sweet potatoes or ice teas. Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the stevia plant, an herb native to Paraguay. It has has zero calories, zero carbohydrates and zero glycemic index! Stevia is ideal for everyone, including people watching their weight, managing diabetes and fitness enthusiasts who embrace clean eating! 
We particularly like the “Sweet Leaf” brand which comes in an assortment of flavors. You can find this product at Whole Foods or other health conscious stores.
