Ok. The discussion is on at my house. Is there a "good" artificial sweeter ? We've been using Truvia and just learned it's not a natural product. We are all in shock. HELP!!!

I've given up sweeteners in most of my daily food. I'm allergic to Splenda, which is in almost everything. Thankfully, I can have Stevia, which is in the Protein powder that I use. That's the only place I still get a sweetener and I usually mix it 1:1 with an unflavored egg white powder to cut how sweet it is. Thank you for this discussion. My husband is not overweight but has Type2 diet-controlled diabetes and is an addict to the splenda-loaded popsicles.

Good discussion. I know I worry about how much artificial sweeteners I use on a daily basis. This summer when I was newly sleeved and coming off a severe diet coke addiction I allowed myself to drink lots of crystal light. In Sept I gave that up. However I have decided for now I will keep using the sweeteners. I like the Protein powder I use most and I plan on using it till I reach goal. When I get to goal I plan on re evaluating and experimenting with natural sweeteners. I am curious to hear other's thoughts too. Thanks to y'all for sharing and thanks GG for the sweetener chart. Very informative.

They're hard to find but crystal lite has a few flavors sweetened with stevia called crystal lite pure.

That's good to know. I'll be looking.

I just found something made with Stevia to flavor water..its called Stur...you can go to amazon and put that into the search engine and it comes right up. I just got some....good replacement for crystal light. Its a subtle flavor, but I am very happy with it.

Sobe Life Water is made with Stevia, I've used Stevia for about 4 yrs now, can't stand anything else
