Stevia is a plant that grows in warm, humid regions and is part of traditional diets in Paraguay, Brazil, Korea, and China. In recent years, the stevia market has become very popular and has become a new substitute for white sugar.

Is Stevia Healthy?

Stevia is 30 times sweeter than white sugar and has no aftertaste. Stevia is known for being a natural sugar substitute. What's more, experiments have shown that stevia does not affect blood sugar levels. There is even some evidence that stevia may have hypoglycemic effects.

Stevia is beginning to replace artificial sweeteners in many consumer products, such as those in soft drinks, chewing gum, yogurt, and wine. Stevia can also be used as a sugar substitute in baking - however, because stevia is so sweet, only a very small amount is needed.

Is Stevia Safe Now?
