Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana)

Stevia is a green leafy plant native to South America, used for for centuries both medicinally and as a natural sweetener.

Research confirms it can significantly reduce fasting blood sugar levels, balance insulin resistance, aid in glucose regulation and manage weight. It also supports many other health problems linked to obesity, like diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

It all supports heart health and may prevent conditions such as atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and strokes.

Further, it has been found to reduce bacterial formation in the mouth, preventing cavities and gingivitis. The antibacterial properties are also beneficial in treating skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis.
