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.

Stills used to create awareness and to take care of the deadly diseases ……around our surroundings.

Chikungunya is an infection caused by the chikungunya virus. Symptoms include the sudden onset of fever two to four days after exposure.

The name comes form a word in the African Kimakonde language and means “bent over in pain”. It describes the stooped appearance of persons suffering with severe joint pains.

It is transferred from human to human by mosquitoes.

The females of Aedes Aegyptii and Aedes albopictus are the main species of mosquito that spread the disease.

These mosquitoes bite through the day.

Incubation Period: Ranging from 3-12 days, usually 3-7 days.

The Virus cannot be transmitted directly form one person to another.

It is not transmitted by Hugs or Kisses, by touch or through the air we breathe.

Difference between Chikungunya and Dengue :

Chikungunya can circulate with the help of monkeys, birds and cattle, but dengue spreads only through mosquitoes.

While for dengue the symptoms subside in about 15 days, for Chikungunya the symptoms can prolong for 3-6 months.

While Chikungunya’s main symptoms are high fever and excruciating joint pain, dengue manifests with high fever, drop in platelet count and rash.

In December 2013, the world Health Organization (WHO) reported the first transmission of chikungunya virus in the western Hemisphere identified in Saint Martin.

The virus was first detected in Tanzania in 1952. Since 2004, intense and extensive outbreaks have been reported in Africa, on islands in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific region, and Southeast Asia (India, Indonesia, Maldives, Sri Lanka, and Thailand).

Prevention is better than cure :

Avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes. Keep the surroundings clear of stagnant water or pools where mosquitoes can breed.

Listed in the World Health Organization’s R&D Blueprint (2016), the recently established Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations has it on their agenda to develop a vaccine for Chikungunya, along with other diseases such as MERS, Ebola and others.

Allopathy :

The Nilavembu decoction is suggested as a herbal treatment, and while many people believe in this, it has not yet been verified by studies. At present it is recommended to use this only in parallel with advice from a doctor.
