The American Heart Association suggests limits on sugar consumption. Obesity is one concern. Heart disease and diabetes are more serious consequences. AHA recommends that men eat no more than nine teaspoons of added sugar per day. Women should limit themselves to six teaspoons. Most Americans grievously surpass that amount. The average adult consumes 22 teaspoons per day. The average child takes in a whopping 32 teaspoons every day.

Steviva Blend 100 Mesh Fine Powder, is a low calorie blend of natural sweeteners for use as a drop in replacement for powdered 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 powdered sugar. Sweetness is clean and non-lingering. Texture is equivalent to 10x powdered sugar. Its color is bright white. It is naturally non-caking.
