About stevia
-- Given the growing global concerns about obesity and diabetes,
beverage and food companies are working responsibly to reduce sugar
and calories in their products, responding to both consumers and
health and wellness advocates. Sweeteners from the stevia plant
offer sugar-like taste and are becoming an increasingly important
tool for these companies.
-- Like sugar, stevia sweeteners are from plants. But unlike
sugar, they enable low-calorie and zero-calorie formulations of
beverages and foods.
-- Stevia leaf extract is a natural-based, zero calorie,
high-intensity sweetener, used by global food and beverage
companies as a great-tasting zero-calorie alternative to sugar and
artificial sweeteners.
-- Stevia is a naturally sweet plant native to South America;
today, it is grown around the world, notably in Kenya, China and
the US.
-- The sweet-tasting parts of the stevia leaf are up to 400
times sweeter than sugar: stevia's high-intensity sweetness means
it requires far less water and land than sugar.
-- Research has shown that the molecules of the stevia leaf are
present and unchanged in the dried stevia leaf, through the
commercial extraction and purification process, and in the final
stevia leaf extract product. All major global regulatory
organisations, across 65 countries, have approved the use of
high-purity stevia leaf extracts in food and beverages.
