Research studies

Many studies have been conducted to investigate the potential health benefits of stevia, including its effects on blood sugar levels, weight management, and dental health. These studies have shown promising results. Below are some studies published in PubMed:

Research studies on the safety and effect of stevia:

The safety of steviol glycosides has been extensively studied and reported in the scientific literature. In humans, steviol glycosides are not hydrolyzed by digestive enzymes of the upper gastrointestinal tract and are not absorbed through the upper portion of the gastrointestinal tract. Several chronic studies and clinical studies in humans have been conducted demonstrating no adverse effects.

Below are few articles on the safety of Rebaudiosides (sweetest components of the stevia leaf):
