1991 Stevia Banned by the FDA
Sometime in the late 1980's an anonymous interest filed a trade complaint against stevia when it began to show up in the US. One of the companies using stevia at that time was Celestial Seasonings Herbal Tea Company. The FDA ordered them to stop producing their teas, which they said were "adulterated." Another tea company, Traditional Medicinals, had their entire inventory of teas containing stevia confiscated by the FDA in an unexpected raid. The FDA even ordered a "book burning" in Texas Nike Air VaporMax 2019 Bleu Femme Pas Cher , of stevia related books. Fortunately, the ACLU and the public heard of this and the FDA backed down.

There were some poorly conducted studies done with enormous quantities of stevia administered to some lab animals with resultant 'mutagens and problems with carbohydrate metabolism. Generally, studies that are done to find something wrong with a product Nike Air Max2 Light Pas Cher , will either find something wrong by utilizing poorly designed experiments or invent some questionable findings.
