Stevia is a new type of natural sweetener extracted from the Compositae herb stevia (or stevia leaf), and South America has used stevia as a medicinal herb and sugar substitute for hundreds of years. Information from the international sweetener industry shows that steviol glycosides have been widely used in the production of food, beverages, and seasonings in Asia, North America, South America, and EU countries. China is the world's largest producer of steviol glycosides. The sweetness is 250~450 times that of sucrose, with a slight astringency, stevioside A has obvious bitterness and a certain degree of astringency and menthol taste, the taste characteristics are worse than steviolbioside A, moderately delicious, pure It has less aftertaste and is the closest natural sweetener to sugar. But when the concentration is high, there will be a sense of smell.
Stevioside is stable in acid and salt solutions, and its properties are relatively stable at room temperature. Soluble in water, in air It absorbs moisture rapidly, and its solubility at room temperature exceeds 40%. When used together with citric acid or glycine, stevioside has a good taste; when combined with other sweeteners such as sucrose and fructose, the taste is better. It is not absorbed after eating and does not produce heat, so it is a good natural sweetener for diabetics and obese patients.
