Stevia: A Natural Ally in Blood Sugar Support
Stevia extract comes from an intensely sweet-tasting plant, Stevia rebaudiana, an herbal shrub native to South America that has long been used as a natural sweetener and sugar substitute. Stevia is ideal for those looking for help managing their blood sugar, anyone wanting to cut down on their sugar intake and/or reduce calories.
One of the best advantages to stevia is that depending on the product you select, it can be anywhere from 200 to 450 times sweeter than sugar so a little goes a very long way. It adds natural sweetness to recipes without providing any calories or carbohydrates because the body cannot metabolize it. Therefore, it has no impact on blood sugar. Even more interestingly, some studies have shown that pure stevia extract can decrease post-meal blood sugar in those with type 2 diabetes.
From a flavour standpoint, stevia may best be described as intensely sweet, which is why it's important to start with a little and add to taste to not overdo it. Depending on the product you select, stevia extract can also give off a distinct licorice-like flavour or in some cases, a slightly metallic and bitter after-taste which is due to molecules in the plants leaf, Stevioside and Rebaudioside A. As in all things, not all of these sweeteners are created equal. You may need to try a few brands until you find one with a taste/flavour profile that is just right for you. This exercise is well worth it when you consider the blood sugar balancing benefits stevia offers.
The Health Benefits of Stevia: Beyond Sweetening
- No Calorie Sweetener
- No Effect on Blood Sugar
- Safe for Diabetics
- Supports Weight Loss
Identifying Who Can Benefit from Stevia Extract
Stevia is ideal for anyone with blood sugar metabolism issues, such as those suffering from pre-diabetes, diabetes, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and obesity (especially central obesity). It is also ideal for anyone looking to lose weight or body fat or optimize their body composition (add muscle/lose stored fat) and is appropriate for ketogenic diets that eschew sugar and carbs.
Choosing High-Quality Stevia Products: A Buyer’s Guide
Stevia leaf extract in its pure form has zero calories or carbs. However, most of these products on the market combine stevia with other ingredients such as: dextrose, maltodextrin, erythritol, or other fillers to help mitigate the bitter, licorice-like characteristics of the plant. So, it’s important to pay attention to the label when you’re selecting your stevia extract to ensure the product you’re considering does not contain dextrose or maltodextrin because these fillers contain carbs and calories and will negatively impact your glycemia or weight loss efforts.
