This powder is recommended for diabetics. Although I am not one, I purchase diabetic options to prevent foods that cause it by making healthier choices. It is even better than the regular stevia because it does not contain an ingredient (starts with an M) that contributes to high glucose levels. It is costly YES, but the amount you use is so small, it'll likely last for 6 months easy drinking a cup everyday. It tastes great and is cost effective because of how long it lasts. It does not leave an aftertaste and I really like it. Read more
I use this sweetener in my decaf instant coffee every day so you can already see I'm no connoisseur of coffee but this stuff is very good and leaves no unpleasant after taste. I had been buying the Purisure brand and that tasted just as good but this Viccoky brand offered a better price and I think it dissolves much more easily in warm coffee. Since both brands are pure Stevia I think the sweetness quotient is the same. It's almost impossible to describe how much to use but I've included a picture of the amount I use in coffee that's equivalent to 2 teaspoons of sugar. Read more

I've been using stevia for my tea for years now. However, upon finding out MANY prepackaged foods, supplements and other food products contain Maltodextrin as a filler I began reading ingredient labels and found this to be true. Maltodextrin is a chemically processed plant starch that contains a very high glucose index causing high blood sugar spikes and then energy/blood sugar crashes. This in turn leads to increased hunger. Although it causes blood sugar spikes it is basically flavorless and not sweet. It also has been shown in some studies that it may negatively affect gut bacteria, potentially contributing to intestinal inflammation or digestive issues. I was amazed at how many products contain this bad additive! Products my husband and I were regularly consuming. I had been purchasing stevia in a large bag, Stevia in the Raw. I recently read the ingredients label again and it now contains Maltodextrin. I had been wondering why I was having to use 2 1/2 Tablespoons of it to sweeten 1 cup of tea (16 oz) when stevia is 200-300 times sweeter than sugar. I like my tea sweet but not overly sweet and this seemed liked an excessive amout to use to achieve my desired taste. Well, Maltodextrin is listed as the FIRST ingredient! This means it is mostly filler and not just stevia. I think the company does this so consumers do need to use more to achieve the sweetness level thus purchasing their product more frequently.So I researched finding just a PURE stevia product that was not too high priced and found this wonderful product! The first time I added it too my 16 oz cup of green tea i measured 1/8 tsp. It was waaaay too sweet. So much so I couldn't finish drinking it. So I now measure 1/16 tsp which is perfect. Stevia is truly 200-300 times sweeter than sugar in it's purest form with out all the nasty fillers that diminish the sweetness. Though it seems there isn't much stvia for the price I 100% believe that this small bag will last me many months since I just use it for my tea @ 1/16 tsp a cup! I'm extremely satisfied, have saved money and happy I am no longer ingesting nasty Maltodextrin! Read more
I really like this stevia powder. At first, I was a little worried about it only being 6 oz, but I was honestly surprised by how far it goes. A tiny amount really does go a long way. I decided to buy this because I was disappointed to learn that most stevia products sold in stores contain fillers, which I personally try to avoid. I wanted something pure, and when I came across this, I figured it was worth a try. The only downside for me is that it doesn’t come with a measuring scoop. Thankfully, I had a tiny scooper left over from another product, and that has worked perfectly. One very small scoop is enough to sweeten my coffee, which still amazes me. Before this, I was using three packets of another sweetener plus agave just to get my coffee sweet enough. I’ve been using sweeteners for years, so I’ll say this: if someone is looking for a healthier alternative and isn’t used to stevia, it may taste a little different at first. It is not sugar nor will have a sugar taste. You do have to give yourself time to adjust. That said, one thing is certain, it is sweet, and you truly don’t need much at all. Because I use such a small amount each time, I feel like this is a great value for the money. Read more
Great quality requires careful measurement because a minuscule amount is needed to achieve sweetness. Excess can make it sour. Use 100% pure stevia. Read more
