Forget sugar. And aspartame. And
sucralose. Have you ever heard of Stevia? Stevia is an herb first found in the northern parts
of South America. Stevia originates as a perennial shrub of the aster
family.
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
Stevia produces glycosides that taste sweet, but do
not have calories. The main glycoside is called stevioside, hence the
name Stevia.
Steviocide is now one of the major sweeteners used in
Japan and Korea, and has been used in Latin America for years.
