Can and should I use stevia in my diet?
For the most part, if you can get stevia by itself, it’s going to be okay. Ideally, get the stevia that’s green and not white; the white has a lot of unneeded chemicals. It’s very important to read the labels on the things you buy. Just because something might be “keto-friendly” doesn’t mean it’s healthy. That can be the case with stevia on keto. The problems with some brands of stevia sweetener:
• Stevia in the Raw – contains maltodextrin (the sweetener highest on the glycemic index)
• Sweet Leaf – contains inulin (can create bloating)
• Better Stevia – contains organic cane alcohol
• Pyure Stevia – organic stevia and natural flavors (likely to be GMO ingredients)
