[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The recent forms of GMO are safe, and completely fine to eat, OP. I avoid artificial sweeteners, preservatives, colors, etc, but GMO is OK. Unrelated to food, but when the time comes, please welcome the use of genetically-modified mosquitoes in your area so that incidences of mosquito-borne diseases can be limited.

Can you tell me more about artificial sweeteners? Im prediabetic and my parents both have/had diabetes (it’s generic). I used to have tea with no sweetener, but recently started with 1 packet of equal  in my black tea with milk and it’s so much better. Like dirty dishwater to lovely tea. I dont have sweetener in my coffee and i allow myself regular desserts with sugar on occassion. I was wondering if i should stop the equal…[/quote]

There are more natural sweeteners you could use such as stevia, agave nectar and Whey Low. Each one tastes different. Stevia has an aftertaste, agave nectar is good in place of honey, and Whey Low is good in drinks with fruit such as lemonade or iced tea with lemon.[/quote]

Stevia and agave nectar make my feet tingle, which I'm guessing is close to a diabetic reaction of some sort. I don't have diabetes and don't get this from eating sugar or honey. These sweeteners are just no good. There is no such thing as a free lunch.[/quote]
