I can’t help but wonder if there is a correlation there.

Many sweetener manufacturers are making chemical derivatives of stevia and calling it stevia. Of course, anything consumed in huge doses could cause cause problems in humans. Finally, stevia has been used historically for medicinal and culinary purposes, when we look at diets over the course of thousands of years they is a natural tendency for dangerous foods to be phased out of the human diet. I wrote a couple of articles on stevia. I do know, being a wellness writer, that big business is actually paying people to get out on the web to spread negative information on natural products, so people can be stay confused. They did the same thing with cyanide in apricot seeds, saying that is can kill you but in actuality, that cyanide is molecularly bound until it comes into contact with a cancer cell. I eat apricot seeds every day, and am in perfect health. To find a raw stever in its natural stat, with no added ingredients and no chemical processing is a hard task, and those bogus stevias are normally the culprits in an health issues with stevia. I wrote on this subject in my blog articles below….
