Stevia Extract

[Characteristics]

Stevia sugar features high sweetness and low calorie and its sweetness is 200 350  times of that  of cane sugar but its calorie is only 1/300 of that of cane sugar.

The component of stevia extract that gives it its sweetness is a mixture of various steviol glycosides. The components of sweetness in stevia leaves are stevioside, rebaudioside A, C, D, E and dulcoside A. Rebaudioside C, D, E and dulcoside A are small in quantity. The principal components are stevioside and rebaudioside A.

The quality of stevioside and rebaudiosideA is better than those of other components, which are commercially extracted and used in various applications.

The steviol glycosides present in stevia extract are referred to as “steviosides” or ¡°stevia extract¡±. Among these “steviosides”, the most common is Stevioside followed by RebaudiosideA. The Stevioside has a slight and pleasant herbal taste and the Rebaudioside-A has no herbal taste.

Although Rebaudioside C and dulcoside A are small in quantity in stevia extract, they are the major components giving bitter aftertaste.

[Function]

A large number of pharmaceutical tests have proved that stevia sugar has no side effects, carcinogens, and is safe for eating.

Compared with cane sugar, it can save 70% of the cost. With pure white color, pleasing taste and no peculiar smell, Stevia sugar is a new sugar source with broad perspective for development. Stevia rebaudianum sugar is the natural low hotsweet agent mostly similar to the flavor of cane sugar, approved to be used by State Ministry of Health and Ministry of Light Industry.

It is the third natural succedaneum of cane sugar and beet sugar with development and health care value, extracted from the leaves of the herbal vegetable of the composite family-stevia rebaudianum.

Elderberries are the fruit from the flowering plant known as Sambucus, more commonly referred to as elder, black elder or elderflower. The most common variant, from which we get the majority of our elderberries, is Sambucus nigra. You will primarily find elderberries in the Northern hemisphere, particularly in Europe and North America, although some southern species are grown in Australia.

Elderberries have been used not just for their unique tartness, but for many different traditional and Native American folk remedies. The dark berries are the good ones.

Besides lots of flavonoids and free radical-scouring antioxidants, elderberries contain 87 percent of the daily value in vitamin C, and high amounts of vitamin A, potassium, iron, vitamin B6, fiber, and betacarotene.

The berries are black or very dark blue, and have a sharp, sweet flavor that makes them highly preferred for desserts, syrups, jams, jellies, spreads, and as the base for various cocktails and beverages. Elderberry wine is also very popular and can be made quite simply at home.

Elderberry Syrup is an effective and healthy remedy against colds and flu. It’s easy and inexpensive to make at home and kids actually like it. I will be sharing a video with you on how to make this elderberry syrup, so please stay tuned.

You can use elderberry syrup as a preventative remedy by taking 1/2 to 1 teaspoon a day during peak cold and flu season. If you get hit with a minor illness, you can double or triple that dose until you feel better.

The flowers of the elderberry are called elder flowers and can be used to make herbal teas. When it comes to having a fever… you feel terrible. Making an elderflower tea will help. Simply boil some hot water, pour it over a tablespoon of elderflowers, cover it and let it sit for 5 minutes. This tea is also great for kids since the Elderflower tea tastes great, and your kid will like it even better if you add some honey into it. The elder plant is a cooling plant. Not only will it help calm them, but it will help them to sweat. You need to drink it as hot as possible for it to help with the fever.

A Final Word of Caution: Considering that so few species are edible, it is always wise to find elderberries in a licensed and reputable store. Don’t pick wild elderberries and it is suggested to cook all berries before eating, as they may contain dangerous traces of cyanide. Green, unripe, or bright red elderberries are bitter and possibly toxic, even when cooked. Furthermore, being allergic to plants in the honeysuckle family is not uncommon, so be careful about being up-to-date on your food allergies before adding elderberries to your diet. Finally, elderberries are known to act as diuretics for some people, so if you are already struggling with kidney problems, then elderberries may worsen them.
