Stevia (*Stevia rebaudiana*) is a perennial herb belonging to the Asteraceae family, commonly recognized for its use as a natural sweetener. It typically grows to a height of 30.5–80 cm (1–2.5 feet) and features oblong, aromatic leaves that are about 2.5 cm long. These leaves are arranged oppositely along the stems, and they contain naturally occurring compounds called steviol glycosides, which are responsible for the plant’s intensely sweet taste. Stevia is 300 times sweeter than sugarcane, making it a popular alternative sweetener. However, stevia may also have a slightly bitter taste, along with licorice-like aromas, metallic sensations, and an astringent mouthfeel, depending on the variety.
The plant is also valued for its medicinal properties, which have been recognized for centuries. Steviol glycosides, the compounds that give stevia its sweetness, are calorie-free, making the plant an excellent choice for those seeking to reduce sugar intake while satisfying sweet cravings.
Stevia is available in dried form, and the product mentioned here is organic and sold in a 500-gram packet. It is of good quality, graded as "Grade A" and retains the natural green color of the leaves. Stevia is widely used as a sugar substitute in various products, especially in the health-conscious and low-calorie food markets. Its versatility and health benefits have made it increasingly popular in both culinary and medicinal applications.
