Stevia Has Arrived!

The air waves have been flooded lately with adverts for a new, natural sweetener derived from a plant which has the sweetness of sugar but none of the calories. I can hear you asking “What is this miracle plant and why haven’t I heard of it before?”

Well, its name is Stevia, a plant native to South Africa whose leaves are known for their sweetness; 300 times sweeter than sugar in fact. So, why is it only just coming onto the English market? At the end of 2011, the UK Government finally decided to step in line with the rest of the world and ‘un-ban’ the natural sweetener Stevia.

Xynergy is glad to introduce La Maison de Stevia. Unlike other products on the market that are bonded chemically in China, the extract for La Maison Du Stevia is gently extracted in France using water methods, giving you a high-quality graded sweetness. 

Here’s some more good news; because it has a rating of zero on the glycemic index it makes it an ideal go-to for those with diabetes or those who simply wish to reduce the amount of sugar in their daily diet. Pocket-sized tablets make it easy and convenient for adding to tea, coffee and smoothies.
