Is there something unhealthy about stevia? I like to eat the little white flowers. But it's kind of gross as a sweetener.

I think all artificial sweeteners cause insulin spikes and as such contribute to insulin resistance and diabetes, in spite of not being sugar.

they definitely mess with gut flora and that definitely has an impact on our ability to process simple sugars stevia may be an exception but i would rather avoid it http://www.jmatonline.com/PDF/108-PB-99-107-01186.pdf
