Samuel, PhD, Director, PureCircle

Stevia Institute, USA
Synopsis:
Obesity is well recognized as a risk
factor for several diseases including diabetes
mellitus type2, cardiovascular disease and some
types of cancer. Once a problem of developed
countries, obesity is on a rapid rise in low - and
middle-income countries, affecting adults and
children, particularly in urban settings. Strategies
to prevent and manage obesity include calls for
reductions in sugar intake. In this conjunction,
efforts to support healthy food choices have included the use of low- or no-calorie sweeteners.
Steviol glycoside sweetener is a safe, natural, zero-calorie sweetener derived from the leaves of the
stevia plant. Used together in a healthy diet, stevia can play a role in combating overweight and
obesity that affect Asian societies. This presentation will highlight on the naturality of stevia and global
affirmation of its safety as a zero-calorie sweetener.
