I understand that it is a substitute for sweeteners such as saccharin or aspartamo, which is healthier, however, I have no record of improving glucose control.Does anyone have more information?

I don't have strips to check whether it is done or not, until I do the glycosilada I do not know whether it takes effect or not ... but I will prove it to have such ...

I have Estevia to buy white dust in the day, marketed by Spanish sugar, I sincerely do not like, since he sweetens my liking less than sugar or saccharin.
I have heard of Stevia very well, and also in read very good comments on the Internet about it, as I have also read that the chumbera plant (it has another name in Mexico that I do not remember now) helps much to level the levels ofBlood glucose, just as Aloe Vera does (I do not know the results, since I give me grimo to have to eat a plant of these such jelly)

I spend a link: <!= tw "

If we compare any sweetener with table sugar we can conclude that improves the level of blood glucose, obviously.
This is of a perogrullo that throws towards Alcas.

By themselves, nor aspartame, nor cyclamate, nor Estevia, reduce blood glucose.
That is not demonstrated, nor do I believe that they are demonstrated, because they have no hypoglycemic power and in the best case (in the maximum assumption), you would have to ingest such a large amount that perhaps you would get intoxicated, yes, the blood glucose would lower you:Mrgreen:

I had a plant that died during the winter.It was fine to make tea and little else.As sweetener in pills, its flavor throws me back.

Hello!

I buy an organic blue boat in the Veritas.I use it to sweeten teas and other drinks.Eye with the stevias that sell around.There is a lot of bully because in the large boats they sell in supermarkets they only carry between 1-4% of Estevia, the rest of the volume is sweetener.That is to say that they are giving us cat for hare.A 25% purity Estevia of this purity sweetens a lot with a very little quantity.I take a little with the tip of the spoon and with that I already sweetened a cup of tea.He does not know how sugar, it is a different sweetness but I can't find anything unpleasant.

On the influence on glycemia ... I don't know ... I have taken it for a few months and I wouldn't know what to say ... worse does not get worse, that sure.The big advantage that I see is that it is a natural sweetener, compared to the rest of artificial products.In Japan he is the only authorized sweetener for use in the food industry.

In the association they came from a company to give us some samples of Estevia in drops as sweetener ... and the first time I used it was to sweeten a strawberry shake a few days ago.I read the instructions and puts that 4 droplets are equivalent to a teaspoon of sugar.I say ... ok.Strawberries are acidic and I am sweets, so 12 drops (3 teaspoons of sugar).I miss my 12 drops ... I try ... Redios !!The hair of end of the arm.Okay.Strawberries will be more acidic than normal.I echo another 4 ... I try ... the Virgin !!This time also tips the hairs of the head.Disorder and boring, I miss another 8 (two more teaspoons).I try ... ostipendia !!He no longer had hairs to put themselves up.Already pissed off, I take a few more drops, and when I already had the equivalent of about 15 teaspoons of sugar, I try again.Blessed copon of God !!!Then I got up, I took the fucking stevia, threw it in the trash, I took two of my individual sweetening overlap of those that I usually buy (like the ones that give you in the cafes), I threw ... and by Finnnn !!!!That already knew sweet at once.

I attest that those strawberries were normal.The next milkshake I took the next day with the same strawberries only required 2 sweetening overlaps that I use.

Conclusion, I don't want to know anything about Estevia:-D

Hello!

I have ever tried the Shaft it, but it is commented that 1 gram of pure Estevia is equivalent to about 380 grams of sugar.The boat I have is 25% purity and in the boat it sets that the equivalence is 1 gram is equivalent to 50 grams of sugar.In practice I would say that these equivalences are a bit exaggerated, but Gondrullo can assure you that if you had thrown out of the good "to your strawberries, you would have found them well sweet.By the way, I give them a little lemon juice over strawberries and then stevia.
