What is stevia? It’s an "all-natural sweetener" that’s "200 to 300 times sweeter than regular sugar" and "suitable for diabetics." The FDA banned its import as a sweetener in 1991, and to this day allows it into the country only as a "dietary supplement."

What is stevia? It�s an "all-natural sweetener" that�s "200 to 300 times sweeter than regular sugar" and "suitable for diabetics." The FDA banned its import as a sweetener in 1991, and to this day allows it into the country only as a "dietary supplement."
Sahelian (Natural Sex Boosters) here teams up with longtime stevia advocate Gates (The Body Ecology Diet) to advocate for the South American plant�s sweetening properties. Among the short chapters that begin the book are detailed descriptions of stevia�s chemical composition and probable effects on the metabolism and of Gates�s dealings with the FDA in trying to get stevia recognized as a safe sweetener.
The heart of the book comprises more than 100 sugar-free, stevia-sweetened recipes, for everything from Autumn Apple Crepes to Sweet Spaghetti Squash. A resource list and bibliography round out this introduction to a below-the-radar alternative, which Sahelian and Gates say can play a role in dealing with diabetes, weight issues, hypertension and even cavities.
