What is Stevia?
Stevia is the healthiest natural sugar substitute, and the most trusted naturally sweet plant on Earth. It is 200 to 400 times sweeter than sugar. It has no calories, no carbohydrates and a zero glycemic index. Stevia has been used for thousands of years as a food enhancer by Paraguayans. It is now being grown commercially and widely used, instead of artificial sweeteners like aspartame, splenda and xylitol in Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Central America, United States, Canada, Middle East, Europe, China and the Far East. 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 zero calorie nature, it is extremely useful to obese persons that are attempting to lose body fat. Because it is a natural sweetening agent, it reduces sugar cravings by fooling the body into a state of satiation. This will result in less sweet food being craved, thus it reduces caloric intake. It will help with the suppression of appetite, without having to resort to products containing stimulants.
