Stevia (botanical name Stevia rebaudiana) is a type of plant originating in Brazil and Paraguay. It contains a substance called steviose or steviol, which has many times more sweetening power than sugar. It is used in several countries as an alternative sweetener to sugar.
The sweet taste of its leaves has been known for centuries to the inhabitants of South America who use it as a natural sweetener. In recent years, the stevia plant and sweeteners derived from its leaves have attracted attention due to increased demand for low-sugar, low-calorie foods. The leaves of the plant and the sweeteners derived from it are many times sweeter than sugar, do not provide energy (calories) and do not contain carbohydrates
Sweeteners derived from stevia provide zero calories and can be an option for people who want to lose or maintain their weight. Studies have shown that low- or zero-calorie sweeteners can help with weight control by reducing the caloric content of the diet and maintaining pleasure in the diet, helping people stick to their diet for longer.
Stevia sweeteners do not contain carbohydrates and do not affect blood glucose. They are suitable for diabetics

Stevia is significantly sweeter than sugar. In fact, the sweetness of stevia can range from 30 to 150 times that of sucrose, which is the scientific name for regular table sugar. The exact level of sweetness may vary depending on the specific stevia product or extract used. Generally, it means you only need a small amount of stevia to achieve the same level of sweetness as a larger amount of sugar.
For example, if a recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of sugar, you may only need a small pinch or fraction of a teaspoon of stevia to achieve the same sweetness. Because of this intense sweetness, it is essential to use stevia carefully to avoid making your dish overly sweet. Many commercial stevia products come with conversion instructions to help you use them effectively as a sugar substitute in various recipes.
