[Composition of sweet ingredients in stevia]
The sweet ingredients in stevia are all glycosides. Glycoside (or), also known as glycoside or glycoside heteroglycoside, is a compound formed by the condensation of sugar or sugar derivatives and another non-sugar compound through the terminal carbon atom of the sugar. After hydrolysis of glycosides, sugar and non-sugar parts can be generated. The non-sugar part is called aglycone or aglycone (,). It is believed that foreign research has isolated several different sweet components from stevia leaf extracts, namely stevia. Glycoside rebaudioside and dulcoside, this component is a glycoside composed of the same diterpene ligand. It is a tetracyclic diterpene compound. They have a glucose attached to the carboxyl group at the position and a glucose at the second position. There are disaccharides or trisaccharides. Among them, the main ones are steviol glycoside (abbreviation), which has a sophorose molecule connected to it and rebaudioside (abbreviation), which has a glucose molecule connected to the sophorose molecule. Stevioside rebaudioside, dulcoside. They are all glycoside compounds and have the same aglycone, steviol. The difference between them lies in the number and composition of sugars bound to the glycoside bond.
[Storage method] In a dark and low-temperature environment, it can be stored for two years without opening the package.
[Effects and uses] Not only does stevia sugar have no adverse effects on the human body, on the contrary, it can also lower blood pressure. It has medicinal value such as strengthening the body and curing diabetes. It has not only won the championship of the sweetness world, but is also known as a fashionable sweet.
[Pharmacological effects] It is about twice as sweet as ordinary sucrose, very low in calories, easily soluble in water, does not increase the body's caloric and sugar burden, eliminates fatigue, adjusts blood sugar, relieves dry mouth and thirst, and reduces Cholesterol and triglyceride, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, nourishing yin and promoting body fluid, used for deficiency of stomach yin, helping digestion, promoting pancreas and spleen and stomach function, beneficial to human body weight loss and weight regulation, because it does not contain calories and can reduce the body's The requirement for sugar and fat food can accurately adjust the hunger mechanism, causing the passage between the hypothalamus and the stomach to become blocked, thereby achieving the purpose of consciously reducing food intake. It has a good skin care effect, and the concentrated liquid is applied to the skin to make a mask. , will effectively tenderize the skin, tighten and eliminate wrinkles, and can treat various skin diseases, such as acne, trichonitis, seborrhea, eczema and wound healing without leaving scars. . Treats colds, flu, coughs, food allergies, fistula congestion. Inhibits the growth and reproduction of certain bacteria and infection of tissues, including dental caries and gum disease caused by bacteria, and is used in the mouthwash, oral cleanser and toothpaste industries [Knowledge Collection]. In 2008, Professor Tetsuya Sumida of Japan A very sweet Asteraceae plant was discovered in the mountains of Brazil, and people named it Stevia. Stevia is a natural, green, health-care, and functional food with a fragrant, refreshing taste. In addition to its high sweetness (its leaves are more In addition to the fact that sucrose is twice as sweet as sucrose and its extract is twice as sweet as sucrose) and low in calories (its caloric value is only 1/2 of sucrose), its leaves are rich in protein, fiber, carbohydrates, iron, phosphorus, calcium, and potassium. It is composed of approximately 100 ingredients such as sodium, magnesium, zinc, rutin, vitamins, vitamins and oils. It was approved as a health food in the United States (years), listed as therapeutic in Australia (years), and was approved in Japan and South Korea years ago. Officially listed as a table sugar substitute, stevia is approved as a food additive in China. .Besides the first-generation sugar source sucrose and the second-generation sugar source aspartame, it is the third natural sucrose substitute with development value and health promotion. It has broad development prospects and is internationally known as the world's third sugar source. . So this is also called.
【Application Scope】Food, beverage, medicine, cosmetics, daily chemical industry.
