wholesale stevia leaf extract sugar powder for health supplement

Stevia comes from the sweet leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, but the leaves aren't actually used to create the stevia product we buy at the grocery store. Instead, the sweet-tasting compounds in the leaves known as glycosides are extracted, dehydrated, and purified. The end result is an extracted, plant-based sweetener that provides a taste that is 200 to 300 times sweeter than sugar, with no significant calories.

Stevia is a nickname for the plant Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, which has been used both as a sweetener and as a medicinal plant for over 1,000 years. The leaves of the plant get their sweetness from substances called glycosides, which are molecules that contain sugar bonded to another compound. In the case of stevia, by the time the sugar is released from its bond during the digestion process, it is used by the bacteria in your colon instead of ending up in your bloodstream. That's how you get the sweetness with no calories or spikes in blood sugar.
