Re[4]: [lists] Re: Re: Top 12 natural superfood

[Guest guest]

The only thing I buy from Sweetleaf is the LIQUID, I don't like their powder

either because its totally adulterated with Inulin, etc. Sorry Duncan, but Im

a purist when it comes to my herbs. If I wanted Inulin I would buy Inulin,

when I want Stevia- thats what I expect to get- Stevia and nothing else.

RAW= I grow my own or you can purchase the dried herb from most herb shops.

www.mountainroseherbs.com is a very good source.
