I'm a believer in the least amount of sugar in my diet. I do supplement at times with Stevia. Since Stevia is a natural sugar like regular sugar, should I cut it out of my diet too? I otherwise have a very healthy diet. I eat gluten free, mostly whole foods. Very little processed food. I eat fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, eggs, limited beef, chicken, fish and rice and rice noodles. I also use supplements to make sure I'm getting all my vitamins and minerals.

Thank you

Here is the deal, Stevia is has been linked to lymphoma (some study I read about a while ago whilst researching the same thing).
Other than that, your diet sounds perfect. As a rule I find that staying active and eating smaller amounts is good for almost everything, (and it allows you to have a treat here and there)
Be well.
