I have been using this for over 5 years. Love it! Taste just like sugar even better. Note- be careful buying any Stevia in a store regardless what it says on the package. They add other ingredients not good for you. Example - I purchased a box of stevia packets in a store. The front of the box in big letters said, "Pure Stevia". Cost $12 dollars. I take it home but then got to reading the ingredients. It had maltodextrin in it & some other stuff. Maltodextrin will shoot your glucose sky high (bad). I threw it in the trash. Very important to read the ingredients. This stevia is pure with no other ingredients! I am diabetic & use it in my coffee. Just a few drops. Very convenient. This bottle last me a number of weeks, or over a month. Can be used to make some homemade ice cream or eggnog with no sugar, or anything else. Priceless! Highly recommend. Read more

This stevia product is great. I was worried about the taste but it has no taste, it's just sweet. It only takes a few drops and it makes my beverages sweeter with no calories and no odd after taste. Read more

Better Stevia is the best stevia I've ever used... and I've used a lot! There are many different types of stevia. The problem is that some of them taste bad. Therefore, getting the right kind of stevia is absolutely essential. This one has absolutely no aftertaste! My mom couldn't believe it when she tasted it. She converted immediately. I really like the Better Stevia the Original (orange label) and Glycerite (blue label) formulas. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to the alcohol in the original formula and my husband is allergic to the glycerite base. So, my husband using this product and I use the glycerite product. The glycerite base is a bit thicker than the original formula. I like to put Better Stevia in a tiny 1 oz dropper bottle to carry in my purse, mostly fill a 4 oz bottle to keep on my desk at work, and the rest in a 4 oz dropper bottle that I keep on my dining table. My favorite ways to use Better Stevia are: - Coffee - Tea - Emergen-C (a vitamin drink I have daily) - Plain Greek Yogurt - Flavored Sparkling Water with no sweetener (Tastes like soda without the guilt!) ZERO CALORIES and no aspartame! Here are some of the reasons I love stevia as a sweetener: - Weight management: Stevia rebaudiana contains little to no sugars, calories or carbohydrates. - Cravings: The sweet taste lasts longer than sugar’s. - Diabetes and Hypoglycemia: stevia does not create an insulin response and actually nourishes the pancreas which helps regulate blood sugar - Cariovascular: stevia lowers blood pressure - Fights Cavities: Stevia is antibacterial and it’s sugar-like compounds do not feed oral bacteria. - Blood Sugar: Stevioside can improve function of the hormone insulin, helping to lower blood sugar levels. - Cholesterol: The active compounds in stevia have led to numerous health benefits in animal studies, including reduced oxidized LDL cholesterol. - No Adverse Effects: Overall, stevia has an outstanding safety profile and no adverse effects have been reported in the human studies.

Read so many reviews before I ordered and have tried many different brands and types of Stevia. Definitely have to say this is the best and my absolute favorite. Does not have a bitter flavor, but when you first start using stevia there is an adjustment period where you realize it doesn’t taste exactly like sugar and if you use too much it does have a slight aftertaste. The trick is to start with a few drops and add more if needed. You get used to the flavor and now I prefer it! I am trying to go back on my ketogenic diet again. The last time I did it I lost 45 lbs very easily and rather quickly but when I went on a cruise this spring I got off it and I have since realized that the food industry puts sugar in everything!! Even mayonnaise??!! But this product allows me to have the sweetness I need in my coffee or tea and I can use it in recipes instead of sugar. I went from prediabetic and high blood pressure, to all normal. Stevia has been instrumental in this! I have tried the organic version and I didn’t think it was as good as this one, didn’t see the sense in paying the extra money when it didn’t taste as good. * And if you check the back of this one it says Certified Organic Stevia Leaf Extract. I have tried other brands as well and had a few of the small squeeze bottles of other brands I bought at the grocery store ( I still like the Now brand better) and refilled the empty bottles with this and I can easily slide it in a pocket in my purse and use my wonderful stevia when I’m out rather than the other nasty sweetener options. I read reviews of others who were using this because they are diabetic and/or also doing a ketogenic diet and were concerned about the fact that it states 11% Organic Cane Alcohol as one of the ingredients... I had to do some research and from what I found, all extracts need some sort of solvent - either alcohol or glycerin. There is Stevia Glycerite and Now brand makes one, but it is much thicker. The alcohol used to make this extract, even though it is from organic cane, has negligible (almost zero) sugar in it and will not effect your blood glucose levels. Highly recommend Read more
