The Stevia Company, which also makes Glorious products, is delivering sugar-free iced tea blends to major supermarkets and grocery stores! Consumers who are reducing their sugar intake can now benefit from low, sugar-free iced tea mixes sweetened with natural ingredients. Sweetened iced tea mixes without sugar, such as Glorious Blend Lemon Iced Tea, Red Tea, and Cucumber Lemonade, are especially made for people who are cutting and avoiding foods and drinks with too much sugar. The iced tea blends in Glorious Blend are naturally sweetened with stevia. Mixed berries, real black tea leaves, lemon, and real cucumber are among the premium components included in the blends. It has a low calorie count and is high in vitamin C.
“Stevia has been regarded as a safe and healthy sugar substitute. It can sweeten foods, and it has several health benefits, including decreased calorie intake, lower blood sugar levels, and less risk of cavities,” said Maura De Leon, the woman behind GIDC, the country’s first FDA registered stevia grower and manufacturer.
Before, stevia was restricted to the health food market without any FDA approval. However, it is now widely used as a natural substitute for artificial sweeteners in many products.
While it has zero calories, stevia is 200 times sweeter than refined sugar and does not affect blood sugar. It is a popular option for people looking to lose weight but who want to reduce their sugar intake.
Stevia is an herb that has been grown in tropical climates for centuries. It is a small bushy plant that belongs to the sunflower family and grows in Paraguay and Brazil, but it can be quickly grown elsewhere. For centuries, the people of Paraguay add them to their foods as sweeteners, and countries like Korea, Brazil, China, Japan, and South America, have long used stevia.
Stevia is now being widely used as a natural sweetener in various food preparations.
People who have diabetes can benefit from stevia. Choosing pure stevia extract can help maintain normal blood sugar levels and should be used in moderation. Stevia can also help cut down added sugar consumption, which can be beneficial for children. High sugar intake in children could lead to heart disease due to reconstructing triglyceride and cholesterol levels, contributing to children’s weight gain. Substituting added sugar for stevia can minimize these risks. At the same time, moderate consumption of foods with stevia and other sweeteners can prevent adverse side effects and promote overall health.
Stevia products such as iced tea mixes, healthy coffees and chocolate beverages manufactured by Glorious, are approved safe by the Food and Drug Association (FDA) for pregnant women or people who have diabetes.
In addition, Stevia is used in all Glorious Blend beverages, including the 3in1 coffee, 4in1 Malunggay mix, 5in1 Brown Rice Coffee, 7-in-1 Mangosteen-Malunggay Coffee, 7in1Native Cacao Choco, and Maxitrim with L-Carnitine. Throughout the day, all of their instant drinks will keep you attentive and energized.
