Yes
It is a type of draw that they will use as a baseline for future bloodwork. That is why it is sent to CA, instead of being processed at the local level.

Thank you JS
I've been using Equal for many years and have had had had had had had no side effects. And I can't find convincing evidence it is "bad" for humans. Have you seen studies on Stevia.

Not sure what you mean by "fool your metabolism". This is only a matter of making things taste sweet and palatable, not a matter of metabolism.

Stevia was sold at Costco warehouse, but they stopped it and restocked Equal because the Stevia didn't sell. Equal tastes better than the other non-nutritive sweeteners. Splenda would be second best after Equal.

FYI Regarding Artificial Sweetener's-A must see for all
Below is a youtube new video related to the subject. I stopped drinking Diet Coke many years ago when I suffered from Bi-Polar Depression, Headaches and fatigue. I had heard about this when a friend of mine told me that she knew the daughter of the man that "invented" this artificial sweetener. Even he wouldn't ingest it and did not recommend it for consumption. It is said to cause many types of problems including cancer. While you are here you can see other related videos on the subject.

Here is an interesting article worth reading if you are drinking/consuming artificial sweeteners and are having symptoms you can not explain.
