Stevia leaf, derived from the plant Stevia rebaudiana, is a perennial herb belonging to the Asteraceae family. Native to Paraguay and Brazil, this plant thrives in warm, subtropical climates and is often cultivated for its sweet leaves. Stevia is distinguished by its small, white flowers and lush green foliage, which are known for their remarkable sweetness, attributed to compounds called steviol glycosides.

In culinary applications, stevia leaf is celebrated as a natural sweetener, providing a sugar-like sweetness without the calories. The leaves can be used fresh, dried, or ground into powder, making them versatile for sweetening beverages, desserts, and various dishes. In herbal medicine, stevia has been traditionally associated with promoting healthy blood sugar levels and supporting weight management, making it a popular choice for those seeking alternatives to sugar.*
