I love this stuff. I also mix it with 2/3 cup warm water and let it sit which makes it super cheap and very concentrated. I use it in everything. It is a lot safer than any other sweetener and I have not had any problems with sugar cravings using this. In fact, to me it helps control my blood sugar.

Good Stevia!!! I have tried a few others, and this has a good taste. I like the powdered the best. It is hard to buy stevia. There are too many to choose from. Some are not 100% stevia. They have bulking agents. I like the NOW Brand.

I highly recommend using Stevia as a sweetener. It is a natural product, unlike aspartame (first created to be an ant killer) which has substantial negative effects. Careful not to use too much as it can have a slightly bitter aftertaste. Not noticeable if you use in moderation. Readily substitute this product for aspartame and Splenda.

The NOW Stevia Extract Powder is a good, less-expensive alternative to the more-expensive brand (half the price). Although the NOW brand is slightly bitter, it won't matter in most recipes. We use it when making our own home-made soda pop, and you can't tell the difference. When mixed with the more-expensive brand (50/50), the bitterness disappears. The NOW brand of Stevia Extract is all about saving money. If money is not an issue for you, then buy the more expensive Stevia powder (SweetLeaf). But if you're trying to save money, and stay off the sugar at the same time, then the NOW brand is great!

Great stuff. It is much cheaper to make the liquid stevia from the powder by mixing it with 2/3 cup warm water and letting it sit for 24 hours. The pre-made liquid stevia costs more than twice the amount I pay for the powder The taste is good and sweetens well, but a little bit bad if you use too much. Overall, I highly recommend this product if you have a sweet tooth like me.
