Question regarding alternative sweetners

[Guest guest]

The water article mentioned that artificial sweetners trick the brain

which in turn causes a person to feel hungry. Does anyone know if

Stevia tricks the brain in the same way?

I no longer use artificial sweetners (except for a once a week diet

pop) due to the other icky things I read about them on the Weston A.

Price foundation website (www.westonaprice.org). I've been using Stevia

for several years and all of the articles I've read say it's safe and

can even be healthy but now I'm wondering if it could potentially play

the same trick on the brain as artificial sweetners.

 

Thanks so much for the clarification!
