Blood Glucose

Stevia rebaudiana is a plant native to South America which has been used as a sweetener for hundreds of years¹ and is now commonly used in Japan, South America and China as a sweetener in foods and beverages.² Stevia has been approved for use by many regulatory bodies around the world, including Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration.

Stevia has a long history of traditional use and its safety is supported by studies conducted in both animals and humans. A great advantage of Stevia is that it provides sweetness without impacting on blood glucose levels, making it useful as a sweetener in a range of Naturopathic supplements.
