> I know
Aspartame and artificial sweetners are poison but since
Sugar feeds the candida, do the articifical sweetners feed it as well?
On the whole no. But stay away from aspartame! Like you said it is poison, and those of us with candida are more sensitive to excitotoxins than most.
> Also, if Stevia is sweet why doesn't that feed the candida?
You think Stevia is sweet?? OK! ;-)
Just because a substance tastes sweet to your body does not mean that the organism candida is able to metabolise it. Yeast is a simple organism and on the whole can only metabolise simple things like glucose, and things which break down into glucose (carbs).
Stevia is not a
Sugar but a herb. And one which candida can not metabolise.
