Anyone know how stevia works to relieve constipation? I just learned from this board that someone uses it every AM in their tea and it helps them alot to have a BM. I'm really curious what the scientific reason [like the way it's known that caffeine and decaf contain an enzyme that stimulates peristalsis] is for stevia's ability to stimulate a BM.
