Dr. Whitaker continues with the following: To the rescue, the 1994 DSHEA ( Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994) legislation gave the (previous) leading importer of Stevia enough leverage to place a legal Hobson's choice before the FDA: Admit Stevia was safe (which would expose the food additive market) or admit it as a previously-sold dietary supplement with no evidence of toxicity. The FDA took the line of least resistance and declared it admissible as a dietary supplement, but not as a food additive. When the cheering of the sugar industry and the producers of Nutrasweet and Sweet'N Low dies down, it will be interesting to see how the FDA can maintain that a natural product deemed safe as a supplement can be unsafe as a food additive, especially for a market dominated by notoriously high side-effect chemical products.
This leads me to ask, where is the loyalty of the FDA? It certainly seems as though it’s not for the people. If we can get the banking situation corrected maybe we can jerk the FDA around and get them to do the job they were intended to do instead of working for special interests. Aren‘t we the people supposed to be their special interest?
Back to Stevia which is an herb native to Latin America it is also called sweet leaf or sweet herb, its leaves contain stevioside, a compound about 30 times sweeter than sugar. Because stevioside keeps its sweet flavor even when heated, Stevia can be used in baked goods and hot beverages and studies indicate it is unlikely to promote tooth decay like sugar does.
It is found that Stevia is a healthier alternative to sugar and can be used in baked goods and hot beverages. Stevia won't cause tooth decay like sugar and it may be a useful sugar substitute for diabetics. Several studies have indicated that Stevia is unlikely to promote tooth decay like sugar does. A Danish study published in the February 2000 issue of the Journal Metabolism suggests that Stevia might even lower blood sugar by spurring the body to release insulin.
