Stevia rebaudiana is a perennial shrub native to Paraguay that is currently widely cultivated. Stevia leaves have diterpene glycosides (stevioside and rebaudiosides), non-nutritive and high-intensity sugars. Its white crystalline compound (stevioside) is normal natural sugar with no calories and is more than 100 to 300 times better than table sugar. The biological activities of Stevia reveal a multitude of benefits for human health, including antioxidant, hypotensive, antihypertensive, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antitumor actions. Stevia has therapeutic benefits as a joint nutraceutical in the treatment of chronic diseases including overweight and obesity, diabetes mellitus, fatty liver, cardiac fibrosis, liver fibrosis, inflammatory bowel disease, cancer, hypertension and chronic kidney diseases.
Global cancer estimates suggest a 47% increase in cancer cases by 2040 compared to 2020. Stevia rebaudiana and its products as a means of cancer prevention and therapy in the context of a healthy diet.
A glycoside called stevioside found in stevia plants helps stimulate cancer cell death in a human breast cancer line. Stevioside may also help slow down some mitochondrial pathways that help cancer grow. Another study found that many stevia glycoside derivatives were toxic to specific leukemia, lung, stomach and breast cancer cell lines.
A systematic review carried out by the Natural Standard Research Collaboration focuses its results on the effect of the plant on hypertension and hyperglycemia.
It can also help control cholesterol. The study found that stevia reduced total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides without negative side effects. It also increased HDL ("good") cholesterol.
The extract of the stevia plant has long been used in South American countries for the treatment of diabetes. RebD treatment reduced adiposity, alleviated hepatic steatosis and lipid peroxidation, and decreased LBP, a marker of metabolic endotoxemia in a mouse model of diet-induced obesity.
A review includes the evaluation of two long-term studies (1 and 2 years duration, respectively) that prove that stevia (a considerable amount of active ingredient, from 750 mg/day to 1,500 mg/day of stevioside) can be effective in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients.
Stevia's unique properties also make it ideal for a mouthwash and toothpaste, as some studies have indicated that it may actually reduce cavities by slowing the growth of plaque in the mouth. Stevia's antimicrobial properties are something that makes it optimal for dental products. Tests showed that it can inhibit the growth of bacteria such as streptococcus mutans).
Interestimg........heere we have a letter from FDA stating how they are 'In Bed' with DARPA.....and now you know the rest of the story'..............................GUUD Day!!!!!!!!!!!
