STEVIA

Stevia is an extract from Stevia rebaudiana, having up to 300 times the sweetness of sugar. Stevia has garnered attention with the rise in demand for low-carbohydrate, low-sugar food alternatives. Nutramedix Stevia was identified as "Stevia A" in a study published in 2015 where it was shown to be more effective than doxycycline in eliminating Borreliaburgdorferi, in all morphologic forms. It also demonstrated a significant effect in eliminating B.burgdorferi biofilms which were exacerbated when using doxycycline.

“Has a great sweet taste, I use this for my Lyme disease, and I did herx on it at first, so I had to back off a little, but it works fine, and since its best for me to stay away from sugar, it’s a great sweetener, i put in my water with a squeeze of lemon. love it.” - A.S

“I have to take a few antimicrobials for a bacterial infection, and this stevia definitely improves the taste!” – K.L

“Curbs sugar craving. Excellent for anyone with Lyme disease or a that's looking for a good quality extract.” – M.L

"I've been addicted to sugar since I was 5.  My doctor told me that I was going into pre-diabetes and that I better make a change.  He told me about NutraMedix Stevia – that it wasn't a fractured, processed version of the Stevia plant.  He said that it came from the plant as a whole food and that's been my goal ever since – to get healthy by eating whole foods and no sugar.  I'm proud to say I've lost 50 pounds and I no longer crave sugar.  This Stevia is really good."  -R.M.

Add 3 or more drops as desired to food or beverages.  As an antimicrobial, use 30 drops twice daily. Nutramedix Stevia contains no added sugars.

An acute oral toxicity study was conducted by the University of Guayaquil, Ecuador concluding that Stevia did not produce toxic effects, thus the product is considered practically innocuous for humans when administered in the acute form. Therefore; studies of acute toxicity at higher doses in humans are not necessary. Full Article
