I am on the therapeutic diet which abstains from

sugars including honey (the only sweetener I used)

Anyone know if stevia is ok on this type of diet?

Yes. Stevia is fine. Get pure. SweetLeaf and Trader Joe's brands are good. Truvia is not at all what it says it is, other stuff is added.

A very tiny amount goes a long way. Very tiny amount.

I find the SweetLeaf liquid is easiest to measure, a drop is often just the right amount.

thank you...
I welcome just a tad of sweet now and then.
and thanks for the brand assessments, too.
