Stevia liquid extract sweetener, enhanced with grapefruit seed extract for extra nutritional benefits.Stevia liquid extract (Rebaudiana bertoni) is naturally sweet and naturally calorie-free. Plus it contains anti-bacterial properties and may aids cardiovascular health.* In Brazilian herbal medicine, Stevia is used to balance blood glucose and help maintain healthy blood pressure. Stevia contains a compound called stevioside. Stevioside was shown to support normal blood pressure, supporting the traditional use of Stevia for cardiovascular health.* Other compounds present in Stevia, such as steviol, isosteviol and glucosil- steviol were shown to increase glucose tolerance. A recent study demon- strated that the ability of stevioside and stevioI to balance blood glucose is a result of their ability to directly stimulate the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.* Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) is loaded with polyphenolic compounds, including quercitin, helperidin, campherol glycoside, naringin, apigenin and rutinoside. Polyphenols are well known for their strong antioxidant properties. GSE also contains quaternary compounds that exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity while possessing none of the toxic side effects of chemically-derived quaternaries. GSE is mostly known for its ability to support urinary and vaginal health. Interestingly, consumption of sugars is one of the worst habits for someone concerned about yeast overgrowth. Stevia will also support good intestinal, urinary and vaginal health.*
