Does Stevia Affect your Blood Sugar? – Dr. Berg

Dr. Berg talks about stevia and the fact that it does not raise or lower blood sugars. Even now it's sweet, but people mistakenly think that it affects blood sugars - this is not true.

I just started using it as a sugar substitute, so I was worried when I saw this new video notification pop up - glad to hear it's a better option to sugar.

Thanks Dr. Berg for answering that question. Great things will happen for you because you help so many people.

I have organic non GMO stevia powder and it does not mix well with coffee or tea so I had the brilliant idea to put it in the coffee maker with my coffee grounds and it works perfectly! Also when I make my tea, I put a coffee filter over my cup, add my tea leaves and stevia and pour hot water over it.

i have a stevia tree and I noticed if I suck on a leaf I don't crave sugar throughout the day!

[mahlonfisher]

Thanks! Greatly appreciated! Could you do a short one on Erithrytol and Xylitol. The research links are also very helpful.

Now I can not worry about lose skin. I noticed that my skin after fasting and not spiking insulin after waking is tighter. The overnight repair process isn't interrupted by sugars. I fast from 7pm to 3pm and try to not consume a carb of any type in between. My skin is looking way way way better since.

growing my own Stevia, I know there are no additives, very easy to grow here in Midwest

[marynordseth]

Thanks, Dr. Berg. I was afraid to even ASK you this question.

[eileenfb]

That's what I thought but it is good to have it confirmed. Thank you for that.

How come Dr. Fung said otherwise? Also, no sweetener during fasting. But you said it’s ok to drink wheatgrass juice and electrolyte, both have stevia. Would love to hear some clarification on this. Thank you

Thanks Doc Q- What line of vitamins would your recommend for non- synthetic....Thanks bunches

[adamjg]

Thanks for this video. I've been using Stevia for a long time and haven't noticed any ill effects or downsides. Is there anything else known about regular, long term use?

[ValerieKoley]

That's what I wanted to hear! Thank you for the confirmation :)
