 This is really meant for topical use more than a sweetener.Oct 11, 2007
By WolfMama

Errrr, I hate to tell you folks this, but this is made from the whole leaf, LOL. Check out the Sweetleaf website. This one is made more for topical applications. It won't hurt to drink it because it doesn't have anything harmful in it but it's more for skin irritations and such, that may be why you guys didn't like it in beverages.
This dark concentrate is renowned for its ability to soften skin and help to smooth out wrinkles. Just apply, and after 30 to 60 minutes wash it away. It's worth trying on any skin problem. You'll be amazed!
Unrefined whole leaf concentrate made with water
- Helps pancreas
- May help regulate blood sugar levels
- Can be used as a topical agent for blemishes
It's still sweet and you could use it that way, but since it's made from the whole leaf all those great plant phenols and stuff are flavoring the coffee;)
It's a very easy mistake to make with Stevia.
Having said that, I'll say this. Sweetleaf is the only company I've run across so far that doesn't add fillers and other sugars to their Stevia. I love Sweetleaf Stevia.
Maltodextrin is a processed hydrolyzed starch used as a filler by a lot of companies. My question is why?
There are a couple of other sugars they like to add too. Stevia is great all by itself. It seems as though they're determined to muck up a very healthy thing, sigh.

Stronger tasteDec 22, 2008
By Mythadventures
The Stevia Whole Leaf Concentrate is a lot darker than it's clear counterpart. Unlike the clear Stevia it imparts a slight taste to whatever you put it in. It's not unpleasant. It's just different.

best stevia product aside from the whole leafAug 13, 2008
By tellitlikeitis
i switched to this whole herb concentrate because i didn't like the idea of a super refined white product that was missing all of the plant's other constituents and medicinal properties. i use it every day in my smoothies. blended with yogurt or coconut milk and vanilla i find it hard to distinguish from sugar. in other recipes, i find it sometimes useful to mix with a bit of honey to balance the flavor. stevia doesn't lend itself well to baking, so i go without in those cases.

Just a great productOct 22, 2007
By Geoffrey Theurer
I'm diabetic and have tried many sugar substitutes and I like stevia the best, plus it puts some fiber in your diet. Before trying Stevia I had mostly used sucralose (Splenda) and drinks and foods sweetened with sucralose but found them to be overly sweet for my taste. I like the level of sweetness in drinks sweetened with Stevia much better (mainly Celestial Seasonings products)and in tea or coffee I sweeten myself with the concentrate. Highly recommend this.

Great sugar alternativeApr 04, 2007
By Justin
This is a nice change from using powdered stevia. I find that it is better to use in drinks like tea (but please, please, please if you must sweeten coffee, just use raw sugar (not that white powdered junk). I like to use this to sweeten my oatmeal (discovered that a few drops of stevia and a few drops of maple extract in oatmeal tastes pretty darn good). My only complaint is that this was shipped very poorly (two glass bottles in a large box with two plastic air bags). One bottle was broken and had made a huge mess all over the inside of the box. Luckily the folks at amazon were willing to compensate for the loss.
