Stevia
 | Hi, Beth. Spelt is a great option for bread. |
 | Is spelt flour recommended for bread? |
| | Hi, Kimmy. Some of these products are indeed found at Walmart – here is your almond flour, for example http://www.walmart.com/ip/Bob-s-Red-Mill-Almond-Meal-from-Blanched-Whole-Almonds-Flour-16-oz/12018295. |
 | I am a new member to this diet plan and wanting to know where can I find almond flour. I am a single mother of two small kids and on a budget. Can you find these at walmart? |
| | Agave is not recommended (other than raw) – it was just noted here that it is preferable over turbinado. To clarify the following the sweeteners that we recommend: |
 | Agave? I thought Agave was heavily processed and just as bad as High Fructose Corn Syrup. If you do a search on Dr Mercola’s site, you will see how bad it truly is. I am so surprised it is recommended. |
| | Xylitol powder is available at Whole Foods. Truvia is a processed version of Stevia – we prefer unprocessed, but it is still better than a completely artifical sweetener. We also suggest monkfruit sweetener (marketed as Nectress), also available at Whole Foods. |
 | Where can I get xylitol? Also I’m having trouble locating stevia in a powder but I have found it in liquid. It Truvia ok? That’s what the store clerk recommended. |
| | Agave is preferable over turbinado, but keep in mind that it is still a source of sugar. |
| | What about tubinado sugar or agave or something like that. I’m trying to find something that I can buy at sprouts or trader joes that I can replace for sugar in everyday recipes like Banana bread lets say when I make it for the kids. |
| | Alternatives recommended by the program include xylitol and monkfruit sweetener, both of which are available in powder form. I find that 1/4 tsp monkfruit sweetener is equivalent to about a teaspoon of sugar, but you can test either sweetener out on something you would normally sweeten with sugar, and see what you think the ratio would be. |
| | Is there an alternative to stevia that is acceptable for recipes? Also if I’m looking to make my own breads and recipes what’s the best flour to use? I see some recipes you have call for quinoa flour are there any others? |
