About this product:
Stevia has become a popular alternative to sugar due to its low calorie content, high level of sweetness (300 times sweeter than sugar), and few known side effects. Many major brands have developed their own patented forms of stevia extract for use as a sugar substitute. At Natureland, we prefer to stay connected to nature and the benefits provided by Allah. While stevia is available in various forms such as crystals, syrups, and powders, we prefer to focus on the health benefits associated with fresh stevia. This plant, which looks like mint and is easy to grow, can be eaten fresh or dried and ground into a powder. In addition to being used as a sugar substitute, research has shown that stevia may have additional health benefits.
The active components in stevia, rebaudioside and stevioside, have been the subject of numerous scientific studies, which have shown potential health benefits such as improving blood lipid profiles and cholesterol levels, reducing blood pressure and hypertension, inhibiting atherosclerosis, reducing inflammation and cancer risk, and improving glycemic control in people with diabetes. While more research is needed to fully understand the potential health benefits of stevia, it is a natural, low calorie sweetener that may be worth considering as part of a healthy diet.
