Why has new research been conducted to confirm Truvia’s safety, when stevia has been consumed safely for years?
These studies were conducted to confirm the findings of earlier research that found steviol glycosides to be safe, and also to confirm that the process of breakdown in the body is the same for both rebiana and stevioside. Through these studies, Cargill wished to answer questions from experts from other countries where rebiana has not been approved. This was done so consumers in these countries could also benefit from the natural sweetness of rebiana.
