What is Stevia?
Stevia is the
healthiest natural sugar substitute, and the most trusted natural sweet plants on Earth. Stevia
is a green leaves with natural sweet taste. It's 200 to 300 times
sweeter than sugar, calorie and carbohydrate free. It has been used
for thousands of years as a food enhancer. It has now been grown
commercially and widely used, in instead of artificial sweeteners like
aspartame, splenda and xylitol in Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Central
America, United States, Canada, Middle East, Europe, China and Thailand.
It has been approved as a sweetener agent in some countries like Japan,
China and Brazil.
In fact, it is regularly used in food preparation and pharmaceutical
products in Korea, Japan, China, and the Pacific Rim countries. In
Japan alone, an estimated 50 tons of stevioside is consumed annually. In
Canada and the United States, stevia has not been approved for use as a food
additive. It may, however, be purchased as a dietary supplement.
In Canada several researchers based at the Agriculture and Agri-Food
Canada, Pest Management Research Centre (Delhi) have been involved in plant
breeding, plant pathology and agronomy.
It has been used as a healthy alternative to sugar for people seeking overall improved health including controlling blood sugar, preventing hypertension, treating skin disorders, preventing tooth decay and controlling Candida. Other studies show that it is a natural antiviral agent and antibacterial as well. It is a great natural sweetener choice for diabetics, and people on a basic diet to control severe liver or kidney diseases such as Hepatitis C. Due to its almost zero calorie nature, it is extremely useful to obese persons that are attempting to lose body fat. Because it is a natural sweet sugarless, it reduces sugar cravings by fooling the body into a state of satiation. This will result in less sweet food being craved, thus consumed, and in the result reduces caloric intake. It will help with the suppression of the appetite, without having to resort to products containing stimulants.
