Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, native to South America and long used in traditional Paraguayan cuisine. It contains compounds called steviol glycosides, which are responsible for its intense sweetness—up to 200-300 times sweeter than sugar—without adding calories or raising blood sugar levels. Stevia has gained popularity as a sugar alternative for those managing diabetes, weight loss, or reducing overall sugar intake. Unlike artificial sweeteners, it is plant-based and minimally processed in its pure forms. However, some products labeled as "stevia" may contain additives or be highly processed, so it's important to check labels if seeking a natural option. While generally regarded as safe, some individuals might find its aftertaste slightly bitter or experience mild gastrointestinal effects. Ideal for beverages, desserts, and more, stevia offers a healthier alternative to refined sugars when used in moderation.
