“The son of Adam does not fill any vessel worse than his stomach.
It is sufficient for the son of Adam to eat a few mouthfuls, to keep him

with food, one third with drink and one third with air.” Prophet
Muhammed PBUH.

stevia has been

hundreds of years. Stevia is steeped in folklore
and immersed in controversy.
