Stevia Powder (or Stevia Leaf Powder) is the RAW-ist form of stevia available on the market, and has been used in South America for over 1,000 years. Green stevia powder contains the natural sweetener Stevisoid, and is made from the leaves of the stevia plant, which are harvested, dried, and then ground down. No purification processes are taken, (unlike with extract crystals) leaving a completely RAW stevia leaf powder.
The predominant use of stevia powder is as a substitute to sugar. Stevia powder has zero calories making it an ideal sugar supplement, and can be added to both hot or cold drinks, protein shakes, and can even be used in baking. Stevia powder is also safe for diabetics to use.
