While stage managing a show last summer, one of my colleagues introduced me to Stevia. It has certainly helped keep my sugar on track and it's lowered my risk of diabetes. After using Stevia, I also managed to start using the Ukf8001axx water filter by Puriclean. Really helped my digestive track get back to normal too!
