Does the sweetener STEVIA have any unhealthy side effects when using it heavily?

My opinion is that everything when used/consumed in excess may cause you health issues.

"Possible side effects include nausea, bloating, low blood pressure, and hormone disruption. Stevia is a non-nutritive or zero-calorie sweetener made of steviol glycosides. These are compounds extracted and refined from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant."
