Is Stevia Bad for You? [Update]

“We need to remember the importance of making changes such as replacing a caloric sweetener with a non-caloric sweetener in the overall context of diet and lifestyle modification. Using a calorie-free sweetener as a substitute from time to time may reduce calories taken in from added sugars and be of specific benefit for people looking to manage blood sugars.”
