Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has tried beverages with the sugar replacement stevia. Any issues? I like vitamin water zero and other drinks that contain stevia but am only 4 days out and don’t want to get sick or dumping.

Thanks!

I find the taste absolutely repugnant. Bought some Stevia Mio by mistake once and had to throw it all out. Bleh!

I'm a splenda girl through and through.

To each their own, though:)...

I'm using Stevia in my tea and not having any problems

I was addicted to Vitamin Water Zero "Squeezed" Pre-Surgery. LOL I was addicted for about 7 years. Once I got out of the hospital, I started drinking it, and I didn't like it very much. I would say it was not really any better than aspertame or sucralose flavored drinks. I even tried one with ace-k. I basically haven't found anything that I really like, but the premier protein clear drinks actually taste the best to me (+20g protein is a great extra).

But to get back to your question, no, I don't think it caused any issues. Maybe some gas, but I say only maybe because I'm only 2.5 weeks out and I'm still trying to figure out what foods like me LOL.

I use it in my tea without issues.

I use liquid stevia a lot in my tea. I like it a lot better than the granular kind, it mixes much better. I like the taste a lot better than Splenda.

Thanks to all whi responded!!

And I have also tried Monkfruit and agave, prefer Monkfruit of the two.

I find Stevia is way better tolerated than Xylitol. I switched to a Stevia sugar free maple syrup for oatmeal and stuff and immediately helped reduce gas and bloated feeling.

I wish Stevia was more common in Australia, I feel like when I'm in the US I can get a lot more options.

I just recently found that stevia has flavored liquid drops. It hasn’t been an issue for me. I just ordered a few different flavors to try in my coffee and shakes.
