Artificial Sweetener Question
RNY on 12/02/14
Nectresse was Monk Fruit. I used to use Monk Fruit in the Raw. Nectresse was made by Splenda so maybe just a Splenda substitute will work for you.

My Integrative physician wants me off chemical sweeteners. I avoid them when I can but there are times I have no choice - such as sugar free syrups at Starbucks.
I use Sweet Leaf brand Sweet Drops Liquid stevia. You can buy plain but I also use Vanilla Creme flavor for hot tea (it is stevia with vanilla extract). They come in a 2 oz bottle with dropper.
I prefer not to use sugar substitutes (though natural) such as coconut sugar, honey, etc. because of the calories and the effect on blood sugar.
