Does anyone have problems with adding the artificial sweetners to their drinks or foods? I know the doctors want us off sugar and most doctors push the fake stuff but I did reserach on it and saw segments on the doctors tv show and the Dr Oz show and these so called sweetners are just as bad for us. I use fresh fruits in my water or some raw honey or agave in small amounts. I even buy organic cocoa powder and make some hot chocolate with some stevia and cinnamon. Trust me it is not sweet but it is good for us with the antioxidants on a cold day. I know I sound like a health fanatic here :) I really am not! I still have some bad stuff every now and then but in small amounts. I love my Quest high protein high fiber bars which is my crack for me!! Even though my drs office says to go by the total carbs. I go by the net carbs after you minus the fiber and the net carbs are only 3-5. I would rather have a bar with good nutrition then keep going after the cake and cookies that still wink at me sometimes and I give in and then feel guilty later. I am glad we can be honest here and not be judged. Kill me with some kindness now... right Rocky Alexander PS>> for people who like chips the quest company makes low carb baked chips. They are very tasty but dry but good to dip in salsa or greek yogurt or hummus
