Stevia

Stevia is a popular natural sweetener derived from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. People use stevia as a sugar substitute for various reasons, including:
Reducing calorie intake: Stevia is much sweeter than sugar, so a smaller amount can be used to achieve the same level of sweetness. This can be beneficial for people looking to reduce their calorie intake or manage their weight.
Managing blood sugar levels: Stevia does not raise blood sugar levels, making it a suitable alternative for people with diabetes or those trying to control their blood sugar levels.
Promoting dental health: Unlike sugar, stevia doesn't contribute to tooth decay, making it a better option for maintaining dental health.
Avoiding artificial sweeteners: Some people prefer natural sweeteners over artificial ones like aspartame or saccharin, which may have potential health concerns associated with their consumption.
Cooking and baking: Stevia can be used in cooking and baking as a substitute for sugar. However, it's important to note that it doesn't have the same chemical properties as sugar, so adjustments may be needed in recipes to achieve the desired taste and texture.
Beverages: Stevia is commonly used to sweeten beverages such as tea, coffee, and smoothies.
Overall, people use stevia as a healthier alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners in various food and beverage applications.
