Stevia leaf extract
Stevia leaf extract is a purely natural sweetener that does not affect blood sugar levels and is much sweeter than sucrose. Its calorie-free, natural and healthy advantages have won the favor of the market. In Japan, stevia leaf extract has been approved for use in food and beverages more than ten years ago, and the world's leading food safety and regulatory agencies have always had a positive attitude toward the application of stevia leaf extract in food and beverages, believing that it is a safe sweetener.
Since the US FDA passed the official approval of steviol glycosides (an active ingredient of stevia leaves) as a sweetener in 2008, it has stimulated the development of the export trade of stevia leaf extracts, making it a strong export variety of extracts.
As the concept of a "green and healthy" life becomes more and more popular, stevia leaf extract has huge market potential as a natural sweetener. At present, the extraction technology of extracts needs to be improved, and the domestic market has not exploded enough energy. It is believed that the stevia leaf extract will become a sunrise industry in the future, and the momentum of vigorous development will be unstoppable.
