A member asked:
Can stevia cause sugar cravings, like aspartame and sugar do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sorry: But none of the artificial sweeteners cause sugar cravings -- you just like sweet things and are probably overweight and Insulin resistant because of it. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet.
