Indeed. I also called cane sugar a complex sugar, which should have
been a disaccharide. Complex sugars are actually starches.

Marshall, is that a typo? did you mean "converted to glucose"?

my body like those "substitute" sugars
it does best with just plain old sugar

One thing to be aware of is that not all stevia is the
same. Many
of the products called stevia actually are full of other
fillers
that are pretty nasty to most people with sensitive health
issues.
ANY white powdered stevia, including those that are
"pure" stevia,
has been highly chemically processed, and is NOT a
pancreatic tonic,
or any other kind of tonic. It has no health benefits
except for
eliminating the calories of sugar. It does not moderate
blood
sugar, it does not effect the pancreas. It does tend to
increase
insulin just as sugar does - just the sweet taste on the
taste buds
sets that reaction off. BUT "real" stevia, the whole leaf or
powdered green/brown hard to dissolve stevia - this is
used as a
pancreatic tonic, doesn't have the same insulin boost, as
the whole
herb mediates the oversweet sensation, and does moderate blood
glucose levels. In South America it is used as a primary
treatment
for diabetes. But, of course, things do work differently for
different people. Just my two cents. Sara
Interesting - it didn't suit my DH either - it is
meant to be a
pancreatic tonic - maybe that's why it doesn't suit
everyone?
Jane
just a fyi
stevia totally stops my body from detoxing
turns it off like a lightswitch
and drops my blood sugar
one of those things that yeah everyone else can eat
but not me!!!
