Amongst the endless HARAH! RAH! of all the good and bad articles published on sweetners of the past and the present, a couple have stood out as pehaps the sweetner of the future.

This Stevia Rebaudiana plant, grows naturally in South America. The people there have been using the leaves of this plant for their sweetening for hundreds of years. It is scientifically known as steviol glycoside rebaudioside A. This substance is extracted from the leaves of this herbal plant and Reb A is manufactured.
Rebiana is only one of many of the sweet substances that can be extracted from the stevia plant, it is not to be confused with the stevia. Its sweetening power is incredibly intense, Stevia extract powder is typically about 300 times as sweet as regular sugar. Rebiana is also very sweet; at least 200 to 300 times the sugar.

Rebiana is not an ingredient in the stevia plant, nor is it found in nature. It is produced by the action of chemicals and stringent alcohols and on various stevia glycosides. Rebiana is simply the trade name Cargill gave to their chemically derived product in 2008. The "No Questions" letter from the FDA states that Rebiana contains residues of ethanol and methanol.
ReplyDeleteRebaudioside A (Reb A) is one of the 11 glycoside compounds naturally in the stevia leaves. It is produced by the action of sunlight on the leaves and is about 400 times sweeter than sugar.
Truvia contains 9/10 of 1% Rebiana and masking agent, and 99.1% erythritol, a sugar extracted from corn with alcohol (sugar alcohol). Cargill, whose product it is, has reported that 30% of their corn is genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Truvia is essentially corn sugar.
PureVia is 8/10 of 1% Rebiana and 99.2% sugars. PureVia is also essentially a sugar product.
