There is a great article on the That Sugar Film website explaining added sugar vs natural sugar. I really liked this simple rule from the article:
"SUGARS naturally occurring in fruits, vegetables and dairy are OKAY but SUGARS removed from their original source and ADDED to foods, we need to be wary of."

This is what bugs me with sweeteners like Nativa, is mostly stevia but has erythritol added. Essentially this is a sweeter derived from fruit - so it has been taken from it's original source.
In the grand scheme of things it's probably ok, however, for now, I think I might stick to my non-fructose dextrose.
