Product Description
Stevia is a small perennial plant native to Central and South America with a long and storied history. The Spanish conquistadors found out about Stevia during their sixteenth century exploration of Central America. They reported that the natives used the leaves of this herb to counteract the bitter taste of a popular community drink, mate, and also used it as an herbal remedy for various ailments. In 1887, Antonio Bertoni, a South American scientist, observed Indians of the Guarani tribe of Par

I'll just chime in here that I'm a long time Stevia fan and love the Now Foods Stevia Extract. So when we ran out of that and it was back ordered everywhere, I decided to try the Stevia packets. I didn't take into account that their packets would be packaged to be the equivalent of a packet of sugar or sweetener. I was very disappointed when I had to use more and more of the packets to make my tea or coffee sweet enough which means that the packets must have some filler in them. And the taste is not the same as the concentrate which may be because of the filler.So when the concentrate became available again, I bought that and am a happy Now Foods Stevia user.So if you want to lower your sugar intact (doctors will tell you that refined sugar is poison to your body) and also get away from the toxic chemicals that artificial sweeteners are made from, then I would not recommend this Stevia but I can recommend Stevia Extract Powder-White - 1 lb. - Powder.For first timers who have never used Stevia before, do understand that Stevia does not "taste" like sugar, or artificial sweeteners (which don't taste like sugar either). But Stevia will register on the tongue as "sweet" and is easy to get used to. Just be forewarned that if you are looking for an exact substitute for the sugar taste, this is not it (and I've not found one yet).

I give NOW stevia 5 stars as they have the best stevia I've tried so far - but I've only tried their extract packets. This one has little aftertaste (if used sparingly as intended). Stevia will not have the exact same type of sweetening taste as granulated sugar or honey or other such sweeteners. It is concentrated and super sweet, and has its own flavor and the more you add the more unpleasant it can get. A smaller amount is best over a larger amount. I eventually got used to using a smaller amount and adjusting my sweet taste - just like adjusting to lower salt. From my previous research, stevia is the safest alternative, calorie-free sweetening product (or should I say "nutritional supplement") available. It is a natural product and not a manmade or altered substitute sweetener and appears to have none of their negative side effects. I like the handy packets of the pure extract to carry with me and have used it mostly for adding to things like hot and cold cereal and drinks like tea and coffee.I've not tried it much in baking, but there are stevia cookbooks available on Amazon. There are cheaper products available with a mixture of stevia and other sweeteners, but not everyone reacts positively to some of the other additive sweeteners. If you don't, then try another brand, or stick to the pure extract.Edited 1/10/13 - Yes, other reviewers are correct that this product says it contains Rice Maltodextrin and Silica. I have purchased NOW stevia without additives and I am disappointed that this one has them.Also, less refined (green) stevia is available, which I understand also contains natural fiber.I think stevia is best in something that has more distinctive taste. If I use it in say bland oatmeal, I add something like cinnamon.
