Splenda. I'm pretty sure it also contains dextrose. (employed by Wisdom Natural Brands, the makers of SweetLeaf Stevia)
stevia is a good option if you are a diabetic, or someone who is just trying to control their sugar intake; either that or splenda is a good choice too.
The sugar alternative Stevia Sweetner is probably so famous for a few reasons. They would include the fact that it is the only natural sweetener that has zero calories, zero carbohydrates and a zero hypoglycemic index.
No. The only sweetener allowed is Stevia.
Splenda is a sugar-substitute, and it is not real sugar, technically speaking. While both types of sweetners will eventually have the same effect and almost identical tastes, the artificial sweetner (splenda) will have significantly less calories in it.
Stevia natural sweetner is very, very sweet you might want to find a recipe that does substitutions. Maybe in a health store.
Any kind you like. It what you use for sweetner that's the question. Stevia is an herbal sweetner gaining in popularity, and I have not heard any negative comments about it.
Stevia has been used for thousands of years with no ill effect and is actually good for diabetics, this particular products monitors were the leaves are harvested and are strictly monitored,much better than equal sweetner which may cause palpitations.The leaves are safe.
Read the label on the Splenda package. I would use it if the child is a diabetic. Use natural sweetners like Truvia or Stevia instead. Many people have had problems with Splenda, such as headaches, muscular and nerve problems or other oddball problems. If you are still concerned speak to the child's pediatrician.
No, some use stevia, some use splenda, and others use sween-n-low You need to read the ingredients.
The cost of Stevia varies from the particular product to the companies that sell them. Take a look at www.steviasmart.com and see some of the better prices for Stevia products that you can trust.
Both Stevia & Sweet N Low packets are the sweetness equivalent of 2 teaspoons of sugar. So, 12 packets of Sweet N Low would equal 12 packets of Stevia. This also goes for Splenda and Equal packets. They are all equivalent to the sweetness of 2 teaspoons of sugar.
