How is Truvia so sweet?
Truvia calorie-free sweetener is made from stevia leaves.
Stevia leaves are 300 times sweeter than sugar- hence why you only need a 1⁄3 teaspoon per serving.
The stevia plant is native to Paraguay, where people have grown, harvested and used it as a sweetener for hundreds of years. Today, it is grown in Asia and South America due to its need for long hours of daylight, water and warmth.
