Stevia Production

Pro Agro World commercially grows and produces stevia leaves.

The Stevia is widely grown for its sweet leaves. The sweet herb stevia is becoming a major source of natural sweetener as an alternate of sugar. It is rapidly replacing the chemical sweetener like Splenda, saccharine and aspartame. Stevia leaves are 20-25 times sweeter than normal sugar. The extract of stevia rebaudioside-a is around 300-400 times sweeter than normal sugar. The sweetness of stevia is also felt for a long time. This is a ray of hope for the diabetic patient, as it is a natural sweetener. It is also used for the treatment of obesity and high blood sugar patients. There is not an increase in sugar level after the consumption of stevia as a sweetener as substitute of normal sugar.
