As with any product, learn to read the label for any additional, unhealthy ingredients. I have found a pretty clean Stevia at Trader Joes. It is their organic powered Stevia and organic liquid Stevia. If you look at the label on the non-organic label of the Stevia, it will contain other ingredients! So heads up. :)
As I have progressed on the Protocol, I have learned I can tolerate honey, and maple syrup. But I am not advocating this for anyone just starting on the protocol. I was well over 18 months into the protocol before I started with honey. Just letting everyone know there is hope out there, so do not give up. It's ok to be strict, because you will reap your rewards. Keep your head up!!
