A natural sweetener, stevia is derived from a plant in the sunflower family that is native to Central and South America. There its sweetness is legendary and has earned the plant the nickname ‘sugarleaf’. It is now widely used in many countries across the world, including Japan, where the traditional chemical sweetener, aspartame, is banned. Lacking calories and carbs, stevia makes for an excellent alternative to sugar if you’re seeking to lose weight. Our stevia is ethically sourced from the very best suppliers worldwide.
