Green Leaf SteviaPosted by Herbal Juice Drink on November 15th, 2017 Green leaf Stevia is a wonderful herb grown in North America, South America and China for a very long time. It serves a number of medicinal benefits but the most important one responsible for its widespread fame is its sweetness. It is 40 times sweeter than sugar and is extremely beneficial for people suffering with diabetes. A lot of countries have already given permission to the usage of this magnificent herb. Its glucose resembling molecules are consumed by the bacteria found in colon and therefore do not enter the blood stream. The blood sugar level remains intact and you enjoy the sweetness of food items without damaging your health.
An important point to be noted here is its availability in market. There are mainly three categories in which it is sold. The first one is green leaf stevia which is prepared from dried stevia leaves. It is the most beneficial of all as the ingredients are retained in its preparation. The second category is stevia extract which is obtained from the sweeter portions of the plant and therefore most of the ingredients get lost. However it does not affect the health in any negative way. The third and the worst type is processed stevia. In its manufacturing, firstly the extract is separated and then chemical sweeteners are added. This makes it about 200 times sweeter than sugar which interferes with the performance of liver. Therefore purchase only authorized green leaf stevia to avail its complete benefits. Like it? Share it! More by this author |
