Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana. Its sweetness comes from compounds called steviol glycosides, which are up to 300 times sweeter than sugar - but with zero calories. Unlike sugar, stevia does not raise blood glucose levels, making it a safe and trusted choice for people seeking a healthier alternative.
Stevia’s natural sweetness comes from over 60 non-caloric compounds called steviol glycosides. Among them, Rebaudioside A (Reb-A) is most widely used in food and beverages for its clean, sugar-like taste.
Stevia is more than just a zero-calorie sweetener. Its natural compounds - steviol glycosides - have been studied for their potential health-promoting properties. Recognized by food safety authorities globally, stevia continues to stand out as a safe and beneficial choice for everyday use.
