Scientific Information
Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana) is a plant that has been extensively studied for its unique sweetening properties. The leaves of the stevia plant contain steviol glycosides, which are natural compounds responsible for the intense sweetness. Scientific research has focused on the characterization of these glycosides and their potential health benefits. Studies have explored the safety, metabolism, and bioactivity of stevia, including its effects on blood sugar control, weight management, antioxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Fun Fact
Stevia has been used as a sweetener for centuries in South America, particularly in regions where the plant is native. The indigenous people of Paraguay and Brazil, the Guarani tribe, traditionally used stevia leaves to sweeten beverages like yerba mate tea. They called it "ka'a he'ê," which translates to "sweet herb." The discovery of stevia by European explorers in the 16th century sparked interest in its sweetening properties, leading to its widespread cultivation and commercialization in modern times. Today, stevia is enjoyed globally as a natural, calorie-free alternative to sugar, continuing its historical journey from a traditional herbal sweetener to a popular sweetening ingredient worldwide.
