Which artificial sweetener do you prefer?

[Jen_Bach 9]

I am looking for a sweetener to use in my tea in the mornings. I don't add it to anything else. I am not allowed any sugar alcohols, and can not stand it if something I drink leaves an after taste in my mouth. I thought about adding some vanilla Protein Powder but I am afraid it will clump because I like me tea to be HOT.

Truvia is the only natural sweetener made from plant extract. I have been using it for years.

I use something called Nu-stevia. It's just like Truvia. It's more white powder consistency than granulated. I like it better than the Truvia. No clumps, no weird after taste. I hate artificial

Sweeteners, this is the only one I can stand!

I have been a sweet tea drinker my ENTIRE life!! I just KNEW I would never like/do Unsweet tea!! Until surgery.... My choice of "Fake Sugar" as I like to call it is EQUAL! I have no problem asking for unsweet tea as long as I have Equal!

Truvia. I prefer it over all the others!

If you take frequent trips to the bathroom use stevia instead of Splenda, for some reason it can cause that in some people where you urinate more frequently.

Hi Im 4 yrs out. I personally don't use ANY artificial sweeteners. Sweets are not in my life anymore, and I no longer crave them. My extensive research tells me aspartame (which most artificial sweeteners are made of) is not a good health product. Stevia seems to be the lesser of all the evils. But again like all things this surgery has taught us is..To get use to tastes that normally we would not like. If I have to use a sugary substance, I just use the real thing in very small doses. Sorry for being the downer, but sugar was one of my biggest problems, not to mention all the damage it did to my system and skin. I've purposely dumped my sugar flavor habit. Not realistic for most people, but it had to be for me. oh I do love to bake, so I've had to tweek my recipes with applesause or mashed bananas, or any fruit that gives me that "I just a great desert" taste. Good question though, says your looking for better alternatives, always keep looking, it gets quite interesting.
