Stevia Blend Ingredients: Natural Sweetener and Guardian of Health

Stevia blend ingredients are a mixture of various structurally similar diterpene compounds, appearing as white crystals or powder, with good stability, and are not easily affected by temperature, PH value, or microbial fermentation. It is known as the "third sugar source in the world", because of its high sweetness, low calories, and certain ancillary therapeutic effects on hypertension, diabetes, obesity, dental caries, etc.. So far, no toxicity or side effects have been found.


Stevia blend ingredients and health


Stevia blend ingredients contain no calories and can be used as a natural sweetener to replace sugars and reduce caloric intake, which suits the healthy lifestyle sought by people today. Stevia blend ingredients are difficult for the body to absorb, so they do not affect metabolism. Research confirms that stevia blend ingredients can be safely excreted from the body without adverse effects.


Pharmacological effects


Stevia blend ingredients have significant effects of lowering blood pressure and blood sugar. They lower blood pressure by reducing calcium ion influx, reabsorption of sodium ions, and stimulating the synthesis of prostaglandins. At the same time, they stimulate insulin secretion, improve insulin sensitivity, promote glucose metabolism, and inhibit glucose production in the intestines and liver, thereby lowering blood sugar. In addition, stevia blend ingredients do not display blood pressure lowering effects on individuals with normal blood pressure and only lower blood sugar under high blood sugar conditions, making them safe for consumption in large amounts by healthy individuals as well.


Application in the food and beverage industry


Stevia blend ingredients are widely used in the food and beverage industry due to their high sweetness, low caloric content, refreshing taste, and lack of side effects on the human body. Stevia blend ingredients not only do not affect taste, but due to their antibacterial effects, they can also extend the shelf life of beverages and improve wine quality. Stevia blend ingredients, as growth promoter of bifidobacteria, can not only promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the human body, but also inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, etc., thus contributing to a healthier intestinal flora.


Application in pharmaceuticals


Using stevia blend ingredients instead of sucrose in inositol oral solutions has advantages such as lower viscosity, faster filtration, good transparency of the finished product, better color, lower cost, no impact on efficacy, and good taste. In the pharmaceutical process, it becomes a sweetener to replace sucrose used in syrups, granules, pills, etc.


In summary, as a vanillin manufacturer, Scingia's stevia blend ingredients as food additives are excellent natural sweeteners. They not only provide sweetness and enhance flavor but also have functions such as lowering blood sugar and blood pressure, which makes the mixture of stevia widely used not only in the food industry but also in the biomedical field.
