INTRODUCTION
Stevia is a perennial shrub that extensively grows in places like Brazil, Central America and Israel but is native to Paraguay. The genus Stevia belongs to Asteraceae family, tribe Eupatoriae and comprises of 240 species. This plant grows mostly at the altitude of 500 - 3000 m above sea level in semidry mountainous terrain. Different species of Stevia contain several potential sweetening compounds; Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) is the sweetest of all. For centuries this herbal sweetener has been used in native cultures to counteract the bitter taste of various plant based medicines and beverages. Nowadays the extraction of sweeteners from stevia leaves is a growing industrial and commercial worldwide sector; more than 750 tons of stevia leaves per year are used as crude extract for consumption and extraction of glycosides. The sweetening property is associated with their contents of several glycosides, stevioside, steviobioside, rebaudiosides A to F, dulcoside A and steviol. These glycosides and their derivatives are known to account for 4% - 20% of the dry weight of stevia leaves.
Stevia and its extract have been studied widely from the sweetener point of view. However, a search through literature show little information on the no-sweetening components that make up 80% - 90% dry weight of this plant and no information for varieties adapted for cultivation in Mexico. Green vegetables have long been recognized as the cheapest and most abundant potential sources of proteins, starch, dietetic fiber and other micronutrients because of its ability to synthesize these kinds of compounds from a wide range of easily available primary materials such as water, carbon dioxide, and atmospheric nitrogen. According to Aletor and Adebayo, leaves and leaf protein concentrates could be used to improve not only the nutritional contribution of food products but also their functional properties. This means that stevia leaf powder or the residue obtained after extraction of sweetening components could be used as additives for the food industry.
Stevia is a totally natural sweetener with no calories, suited for people who cannot tolerate sugar. Stevia is also useful for people who are conscious about calories in their food.
Stevia is the safest natural sweetener, and it can substitute cane sugar in various preparations and formulations. It has been used to treat many ailments including diabetes, high blood pressure, digestive disorders, addictions and several skin defects.
Stevia is alternatively named as rebaudiana (re-bau'dee-ah-nah). It is a member of the composites family. Stevia is originated from North Eastern Paraguay and widely distributed to USA, Brazil, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and South East Asia. This is commonly known as (aa-He-e (Sweet herb) in Japan and Korea and generally occurs on the edge of marshers or in grassland communities on soil with shallow water tables.
Stevia rebaudiana (Syn. Eupatoriun rebaudiana) belongs to the family Astera. It is diploid with chromosome number 2n-22. The plant is a slender perennial herb growing upto a height of 60 to 70 cm tall with sessile, oppositely arranted Ianceolate to obtanceolate leaves, serrated above the middle. The flowers are small, white and arranged in an irregular cyme. Stevia is a short day plant.
