If it isn't KRISDA Natural Soda... it doesn't contain KRISDA sweetener. KRISDA Natural Soda is made exclusively with KRISDA brand premium natural Stevia sweetener. Made in Canada, KRISDA contains only premium ingredients to ensure its purity, optimal sweetness and refreshing taste. KRISDA brand Stevia is the leading Stevia sweetener in Canada and has been since long before most people had heard of Stevia. "Through years of research and experience the KRISDA team has proudly developed what we believe is the best Stevia sweetener in the world," said Mark Wilson VP Sales and Marketing. "Taste tests across Ontario and Quebec have shown consumers prefer the taste of our sodas to other major brands."

The sweetness in KRISDA comes from an extract of the Stevia plant native to South America which produces a sweetener 300 times sweeter than sugar but without the insulin-spiking effects or caloric content of sugar. Stevia extract has been used for centuries as a sweetener and has no side effects and is suitable for anyone.

"I love using KRISDA stevia, so I'm very excited that it’s now available in a soda," said Kristine Fretwell, host of the Busy But Healthy internet TV show. "What's also great is the added vitamins, as most Canadians are missing essential nutrients in their diets." Fretwell is a former fitness model turned nutrition advisor and healthy lifestyle advocate. "There is growing concern about high sugar and artificially sweetened sodas, so KRISDA Natural Soda is the perfect alternative." Over the next few months Fretwell will be airing a series of online videos to educate people about the benefits of KRISDA and how to incorporate all KRISDA products into a healthy lifestyle.” Over the next few months Fretwell will be airing a series of online TV shows to educate people about the benefits of KRISDA and how to incorporate all KRISDA products into a healthy lifestyle.
