  Just so you know, this product is not an extract of the unprocessed leaf.  It 
is processed stevia, the sweetner extracted from the leaf and then diluted.  To 
be simply an extract of the leaf it would be not a brownish green liquid, not 
clear, and would have a licorice taste.  How do I know?  I've tried it.  I've 
also made home extracts from the whole leaf.   Its a great sugar substitute, 
but is not giving you the health benefits of the whole herb stevia.  Sara

    For some years now I have been using” SweetLeaf, SteviaClear”, getting it 
from iHerb. Contents;- Purified water;Stevia [leaf] extract. Am very satisfied 
with it.Have used the powder in the past,but found it to be bitter if a bit too 
much was used.
