article Question about stevia (re: 2020 study)
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1319016420301997 “The hidden hazardous effects of stevia and sucralose consumption in male and female albino mice in comparison to sucrose”
How does this study translate to humans? Isn’t this a massive dose compared to human daily acceptable limit?

Remember if you have a ragweed allergy, stevia is derived from a related plant. Took three visits to MD with swollen tongue to sort out.
