Stevia

What is Stevia?

Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. The plant is native to South America, where it has been used for centuries as a sweetener and medicinal herb. Stevia extract is much sweeter than sugar, but contains almost no calories, making it an attractive alternative for people looking to reduce their sugar intake or manage their weight.

Stevia is commonly available in both liquid and powder form and can be used as a substitute for sugar in a variety of foods and beverages, including coffee, tea, smoothies, and baked goods. It has become increasingly popular in recent years as more people have become interested in natural and low-calorie sweeteners.
