Stevia is a small herbaceous shrub that is native to South America. Known as a pleasant tasting herb, it has been utilized for generations by native Guarani Indians as both a sweetening agent and a health enhancing herb. Extracts of the herb are currently being used in several other countries as well as in South America.

Containing numerous substances considered to be of therapeutic value, Stevia is a unique health-enhancing dietary supplement. Preliminary studies in Paraguay and Brazil have examined the herb's hypoglycemic action with positive results. It appears to have an adaptogenic-like effect. Brazilians have used the herb for centuries to aid in digestion and improve overall gastrointestinal function. Today in China, the herb is used as an appetite stimulant, a digestive aid, and to assist in weight management.

Stevia extract is also effective when used on skin blemishes, acne, seborrhea, dermatitis and eczema. People report that when a few drops of stevia extract are placed in cuts and wounds, there is more rapid healing with less scarring.
