Ka'a He'e via
(natural steviol glycosides)
I - Main characteristics of Steviol Glycosides by NATUR'VIA. The main characteristics of our Steviol Glycosides are as follows… : It comes from a plant which is not been cloned. There is natural balance between the density of each molecule present in the Steviol Glycosides. All virtues of flavour and medicinal properties are related to the bala
nce between these molecules. We find them only in the mother plants we use. II - Difference between NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides and "Chinese" Glycosides. Our Steviol Glycosides are very different than the one proposed by the Chinese. First:
The first difference is essential; The plant. We use a mother plant, unlike the cloned plants using a single molecule
(Rebaudiose A). Second:
We do not use pesticides nor chemical fertilizers. In China the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers is required because the cloned plant is weaker. Third:
The method of extraction used by us is completely natural, we use nano and other ultra filtration processes. Other manufacturers are using chemical methods and alcohols such as ethanol and methanol. Fourth:
Our Steviol Glycosides residuals do not contain heavy metals nor pesticides, unlike other products from China, which contain abnormal quantities (Completely forbidden for some of them). Fifth:
The Stevia rebaudiana is a plant original from Paraguay, where is known as Ka'à in He'e or the sweet leave in Guaraní language. We have the Certification of origin and soon also Denomination of Origin. III – Why choose NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides? To choose Natur'via’s Steviol Gycosides is to choose a QUALITY PRODUCT, a consistent product and mostly of all, NATURAL, with certification of origin. It means offering your customers all advantages of Nature, touching the fringe of customer as much as possible at least of the most demanding ones. Communicate on natural products is very important at these moments given the current food scandals. IV - Difference between NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides and artificial sweeteners
The biggest difference between Natur'via Steviol Glycosides and other intense sweeteners is that our product has no restrictions on its use. It has not a single contraindication, at the contrary ... it only has advantages. The benefits are multiple: - It has zero calories.
- It is allowed for diabetic people.
- Helps fight obesity.
- Controls the level of cholesterol.
- Fights hypertension.
- Reduces acidity in the stomach.
- Does not ferment in the mouth, therefore do not produce teeth cavities.
- Stop bleeding and accelerates healing.
- Is 10 times more intense in cellular regeneration than Aloe Vera.
-
We are therefore talking about a non-chemical but 100% NATURAL PRODUCT. V - Difference between NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides and sucralose. Sucralose is not a natural product, it forms from a molecule of sugar by replacing three atoms of hydrogen and oxygen by three atoms of chlore. The Natur'via Steviol Glycosides as natural product does not have restriction of use (as we found with sucralose ADI). For Steviol Glycosides, EFSA authorized dose of 4 mg / per kg of body weight as daily doses. There is no probable way that it may be exceeded. This gives us possibility for many benefits as we know there are no contraindications. V - Difference between NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides and sugar. It is important to say that Steviol Glycosides can be considered as a supplement to sugar. It is the only product "NATURAL" that allows a considerable reduction of sugar which obviously helps to lessen its negative effects. Steviol Glycosides mixed with sugar will become wide spread, because it allows to retain the flavour of almost all products without changing their formulation. Natur'via Steviol Glycosides are the real answer to the most serious problems generated by sugar (obesity, diabetes, tooth decay, hypertension etc ...). It’s sweetness is 300-330 times that of sugar, without having it’s disadvantages. Mix of sugar with Natur'Via Steviol Glycosides is a solution that allows a gradual progress in reduction
Reduction in different percentages of total sugar will certainly lead to the benefit of Natur'via Steviol Glycosides. VI - Other relevant information about NATUR'VIA Steviol Glycosides
Regarding local farming and "Fair Trade". In Paraguay, government is following a national social programme called " EL ORO VERDE " or Green Gold where Natural Steviol Glycosides are becoming more and more important in the local economy, employing more peasants and people. As a producer of Ka'a He'e, in Natur'Via we treat the farmers who work with us best as possible. We offer them formation in agriculture and aid techniques to improve their productivity. In addition, health and dental care s is offered. We also have a project in order to provide them with free access to certain drugs&medicines as well as eye care by distribution of eyeglasses. There are currently nearly 2,000 families who live from farming Ka'a He'e to Natur'via. They carry four harvests per year, thereby ensuring them a decent income and possibility of sending their children to school . Previously they cultivated Cassava and could not live decently. This plant represents the future of Paraguay, we are very proud we can bring our contribution to the development of this country and its people. We are currently applying for the Fair Trade For Life Certification which is guiding our actions and defining our philosophy of doing things. On the other hand, we can mention we are working in two further applications for the stevia Ka 'â He'e plant. The first as a natural fertilizer is proven to be extraordinary for growing fruit and improving sweet taste levels. The second as nutritional supplement in pet & animal food. Presentation is a green powder non extracted but containing leaves and stems from the plant.
