Ideas on How to Use Flavored Stevia For Healthier Lifestyle

All  of my family knows how much I enjoy and use stevia.  I like it because it is a 100% natural product (unlike aspartame, splenda, nutrasweet etc) and yes, because it isn't full of calories :-)


One of my favorite stevia company NuNaturals, just sent me a bunch of new products to try and asked if I would want to provide a giveaway for you guys.   I said, "FOR SURE!"


I thought it would be fun to do a post on how I use the products that are in the giveaway and yes, since it is January, I know we are all trying to find ways to eat healthier and cut back on those calories.  :-)

I had a very sweet and patient model.......good thing she LOVES her picture taken!  (although, she was NOT trilled that she wasn't in color)  :-)

 1.) Make your OWN natural soda!  

Natural Talking Rain with Orange NuNaturals Stevia - I also LOVE Cherry Vanilla Flavor!  See Amazon link below.

It will be 4 years this summer that I went off standard, store bought soda pop. Every once in a while I still will crave a refreshing carbonated drink so I buy the sparkling natural water (like talking rain, it's just carbonated mountain spring water) and I drop a few drops of the flavored stevia in them.  In fact, as I am writing this I am drinking an orange stevia "soda" I just made!  Completely hits the spot and I don't worry about calories or yucky chemicals!

2.) Flavor your own yogurt.

Non Fat Greek Yogurt with NuNaturals Vanilla Stevia

I buy plain yogurt in bulk from Costco and add a few drops of the NuNaturals Stevia to flavor it.  It's DELICIOUS!  My favorite flavor is the Vanilla but chocolate or lemon would also be nice.

3.) Flavor your coffee, tea or smoothies.

Mocha with NuNatruals Chocolate and Peppermint Stevia

This one is simply delicious.....try the chocolate one in your next coffee!  Or how about chocolate and  Peppermint NuStevia mixed :-)  For that matter, make your own healthy sugar free hot chocolate - just add a few drops to some steamed milk.

They have worked so hard at creating the best flavors and highest quality of stevia.  If you are someone that has previously said you don't like the aftertaste of stevia (personally, this brand hardly has an aftertaste to me) I woud try their new prebiotic stevia that is a powdered stevia mixed with Tagatose.  You can read more about Tagatose on their website but I'm very excited about it and the taste is amazing.  I found that when they mixed the two - any slight aftertaste the stevia might have had went away.

That product is probably my favorite to put on my grapefruit and oatmeal.

4.) Add it to your water or make Lemonade

Fresh Squeezed Lemon with NuStevia Prebiotic Blend

One more idea :-)  If you have a hard time gulping down plain water, just add a drop or two of the vanilla or lemon and now you have a tasty water to drink.  You can also make the BEST lemonade just squeezing fresh lemons in water sweetened with the prebiotic stevia.
