Yes it can. That is one of the product's biggest selling points.

Sure thing! It is sweeter than sugar so use sparingly. I even grew some in my garden one year.

Stevia has been shown to help stabilize blood sugar and so can actually HELP diabetics!

Thank you everyone............wooo I'm gonna check out some recipes with using stevia!

Lori,
I keep a shaker of stevia at my desk, and every day I treat myself to healthy fresh-brewed green tea, poured over ice that I've shaken my stevia onto. My stevia dissolves, my tea chills...ahhhh. Healthy, non carbonated, no fake chemical sweetener stuff in there...such a treat. Good for diabetics, doesn't raise blood sugar.
