Introduction

Pomegranate, (Punica granatum L in Latin), belongs to the family Punicaceae which includes only one genus and two species. The tree is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and has been cultivated since ancient times throughout the Mediterranean region of Asia, Africa and Europe.

Pomegranate offers abundant benefits for the cardiovascular system by preventing damage to arterial walls, promoting healthy blood pressure levels, improving blood flow to the heart, and preventing or reversing atherosclerosis.

Pomegranate may benefit people with diabetes and those at risk for the disease. It helps lower after-meal blood sugar levels and protects the cardiovascular system from diabetes-induced damage.

Pomegranate shows promise in killing prostate cancer cells, whether the cells are hormone-sensitive or not. Pomegranate also helped halt the progression of prostate cancer in men who had undergone surgery or radiation for the disease.

Pomegranate may fight the degeneration of joint tissue that leads to painful osteoarthritis, and may protect the brain against oxidative stress-induced changes that can lead to Alzheimer’s. Pomegranate extracts—alone or in combination with the herb gotu kola—help kill the bacteria that contribute to dental plaque, while helping to heal gum disease. Pomegranate also appears to protect the health of the skin and liver.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention states, “During the past 20 years, there has been a dramatic increase in obesity in the United States and rates remain high. More than one-third of U.S. adults and approximately 17% of children and adolescents aged 2—19 years are obese. CDC estimates 97 million Americans are dangerously overweight. The agency reports this is the second leading cause of preventable death following smoking.

As the health and wellness trend drives the U.S. food industry, savvy food scientists are looking to sweeten their products naturally with minimal caloric contribution. This is where Steviva Ingredients can help. Steviva offers a solution with Steviva Blend stevia sweetener.

Steviva Blend, is a low calorie blend of natural sweeteners for use as a drop in replacement for sucrose or table sugar. The basis of this blend is a proprietary mixture of FDA approved steviol glycosides that are optimized to reduce bitterness. Flavor purity is enhanced by our unique method of water extraction of these glycosides from the leaves of the South American plant, Stevia rebaudiana. To this residual free extract, Erysweet erythritol, a natural sugar alcohol produced by fermentation, is added to provide bulk to the blend, but more importantly, it rounds the sweetness profile with a slight cooling property. The temporal effect is similar to sucrose. Sweetness is clean and non-lingering. Texture is equivalent to standard particle sugar. Its color is bright white and naturally non-caking.
