Bizarre, since there's no sugar involved in either one...but the stevia seems to be a positive thing for me.
I didn't know about Sobe Lifewater using stevia as a sweetener...thanks for that info Nikki!  That gives me a better choice to grab when we're out running around.

Just in case FYI, Cafeine raises the b/s, and soda, as much as I love my diet Pepsi is bad for the kidneys. i've been diagnosed with type 2 for 19 yrs.
