Hi, I'm new here, and unfortunately don't have Facebook to access the Australia THM Group. I have a Question on Stevia I'm hoping someone can answer. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be anywhere local that stocks NuNaturals, or a lot of the recommended products from the book. I located this Pure Extract Stevia product in my local store - www.nirvanahealthproducts.com/products/nirvana-organics-stevia/pure-stevia-extract-pwd.-15g.htmlFrom what I can see, it is 100% Pure Extract Powder like the NuNaturals, but I'm wondering if someone can confirm that it is the equivalent and ok to use? Also, does anyone know of a Truvia equivalent in Australia? There's a number of brands available in the local supermarket, just not sure which is best. eg. www.natvia.com.au/I'm still to find/purchase many other items like Glucomannan, Whey Protein Powder. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum! You can use the Nirvana stevia extract product that you found. I am guessing that it would be the equivalent strength of the NuNaturals pure extract, but I haven't tried it, so I can't be sure. You may have to experiment a little bit. Unfortunately I can't help with your other questions, but I know there are mamas from Down Under on here, so hopefully they will chime in and give you some advice. There are a few threads here about where to find things in other countries, so you might check those out. And remember, these special products are wonderful and helpful, but they are not at all necessary. You can still do the plan without them. There are some mamas who do. You can make it work with only the basics that you can find at any grocery store. Glad you're here with us, and feel free to post any other questions you have.

Hi Emily, Thank you so much for your reply. I went ahead and purchased the Nirvana Stevia and it seems good to me. I appreciate your tips and have definitely embarked on the plan with the basics and so far so good . I have just placed an order for some Glucomannan, so looking forward to receiving that so I can try out some more of the dessert recipes in the book! Thanks again for your welcome and reply.
