Is Stevia safe? I was looking at a magnesium supplement called Natural Calm which contains magnesium citrate and stevia. I had read that it is not approved by the FDA as a sweetner.

I use Stevia-Plus every day and it makes a huge difference with my IBS.

It's not FDA approved because the artificial sweetener companies have been putting pressure on Captial Hill. The companies would lose millions, if not billions if a natural sugar substitute was approved.

I have used Stevia for a long time with no ill effects. I have IBS-C.
