Rebaudioside A

Rebaudioside A, also known as Reb A, is a sweetener and the main sweetness contained in the Stevia rebaudiana plant, which is grown for its sweet leaves. This plant is primarily native to Paraguay in South America, where it is traditionally used to sweeten foods and beverages. Rebaudioside A is naturally sweet and is up to 300 times sweeter than regular sugar, but without the added calories. It is also widely used both as a natural alternative to artificial sweeteners and in diet foods.

Reb A is used in various types of foods and beverages as an alternative sweetener. It can be found in many low-calorie beverages, including diet versions of sweetened beverages such as cola or juices. In addition, it is included in some types of chewing gum, candy and chocolate. Due to its unique properties, it is also used in the production of various dietary and diabetic foods such as yoghurt, ice cream or baked goods. In the cosmetic industry, Reb A is a component of some oral care products such as toothpastes or mouthwashes due to its ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria responsible for bad breath.
