Stevia Extract

[Characteristics]

Stevia sugar features high sweetness and low calorie and its sweetness is 200 350  times of that  of cane sugar but its calorie is only 1/300 of that of cane sugar.

The component of stevia extract that gives it its sweetness is a mixture of various steviol glycosides. The components of sweetness in stevia leaves are stevioside, rebaudioside A, C, D, E and dulcoside A. Rebaudioside C, D, E and dulcoside A are small in quantity. The principal components are stevioside and rebaudioside A.

The quality of stevioside and rebaudiosideA is better than those of other components, which are commercially extracted and used in various applications.

The steviol glycosides present in stevia extract are referred to as “steviosides” or ¡°stevia extract¡±. Among these “steviosides”, the most common is Stevioside followed by RebaudiosideA. The Stevioside has a slight and pleasant herbal taste and the Rebaudioside-A has no herbal taste.

Although Rebaudioside C and dulcoside A are small in quantity in stevia extract, they are the major components giving bitter aftertaste.

[Function]

A large number of pharmaceutical tests have proved that stevia sugar has no side effects, carcinogens, and is safe for eating.

Compared with cane sugar, it can save 70% of the cost. With pure white color, pleasing taste and no peculiar smell, Stevia sugar is a new sugar source with broad perspective for development. Stevia rebaudianum sugar is the natural low hotsweet agent mostly similar to the flavor of cane sugar, approved to be used by State Ministry of Health and Ministry of Light Industry.

It is the third natural succedaneum of cane sugar and beet sugar with development and health care value, extracted from the leaves of the herbal vegetable of the composite family-stevia rebaudianum.

It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown! Linus totally had the right idea about loving pumpkins…even though he thought the “Great Pumpkin” was going to give him gifts and candy, Linus was right in this sense: He knew that pumpkins were great! He didn’t know why…but I didn’t either until I started eating more pumpkin and doing my research on this large and beautiful squash.

That’s why today we are talking about “Pumpkins” and why, especially during this time of year, you should have a couple of pumpkins in your vegetarian kitchen.

Hey, I am EJ and thank you for tuning in for another edition of “Vegetarian Kitchen” where we explore the vegetarian and vegan resources that are available to help make vegetarian living easy breezy. From food ingredients, to appliances, to cooking tools, you will get the low-down on the essentials you should have stocked and ready to go in your “Vegetarian Kitchen.”

It’s 5:00 in the morning and you hear the slamming of cabinets and the clanking of pots, pans, and lids. You hear your mom say “Now where is that garlic powder, I know I just bought some from the store.” Next is the sound of water filling a large pot. Then you smell it! The beautiful sweet aroma of nutmeg, brown sugar, cinnamon and a hint of vanilla.

And you know what time it is. You’ve been woken up many times, on Thanksgiving morning by that same smell and it never gets old. Momma has baked her homemade, love filled pumpkin pie. And now you fall back to sleep, dreaming of how you will get the first slice of that pumpkin pie.

While pumpkins are great to enjoy all year round, the holiday season tends to be the peak time where everyone goes PUMPKIN CRAZY so here’s why you want to make sure you eat some pumpkin this holiday season:

A pumpkin a day helps with the vitamin A. Eating a pumpkin a day is a bit much, BUT this winter squash is a great source of beta carotene and Vitamin A which maintains healthy skin, teeth, and good vision. 100g of pumpkin can provide more than half of your daily value of this important vitamin

Your furry friends will not only love pumpkin but they will love you for giving it to them. Especially if your cat or dog is suffering from digestive issues or hairballs.

It is so versatile. Not only can you eat the pulp of the pumpkin, but you can roast the seeds and consume the oil from roasting the seeds. Talk about stretching your dollar!

Pumpkins can be enjoyed without the crust and whipped cream. Don’t believe me? Try these different ways to begin loving pumpkin all year:

In a muffin! For years blueberries and banana walnut have dominated the muffin game. Pureed pumpkin is a great addition to any muffin recipe. Just replace one cup of flour with a cup of puree pumpkin.

Don’t toss the seeds! Make homemade flavored pumpkin seeds with the kiddos. After carving the pumpkin, save the seeds, rinse them off, throw them in a bowl and toss in some of your favorite seasoning and drizzle with oil. Next put them on a baking sheet and place them in a 425 degree oven and bake for a few minutes.

For breakfast – Yes. How do pumpkin pancakes sound? Delicious! Here is a quick pumpkin pancake recipe. Make sure you visit Vegtabowlfoods.com for the full recipe.

Ingredients:

¾ cup of pureed pumpkin
¾ cup of flour
¼ cup brown sugar
½ tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
3 tbsp. canola oil
2 tbsp. arrowroot powder (optional)
2 cups of non-dairy milk

What to Do:

Get out your iron skillet and place a little oil in the skillet
In a large bowl add the flour, brown sugar, salt baking soda and arrowroot powder and mix well. Make sure to work out any clumps.
Next add the canola oil and non dairy milk and mix well. Fold in the pureed pumpkin.

Next heat the iron skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot. Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, pour ¼ cup of pancake batter in the hot skillet. Cook the pancake on one side for 2 minutes or until brown then flip and cook for another 2 minutes or until brown.

Continue until you have cooked all of the pancake batter. Enjoy your pancakes with your favorite syrup and fruit.

You will never look at or eat pumpkin ever the same again. During this holiday season, get creative with your fresh and canned pumpkin.

Why it Works for
F21 is an All Natural Sugar Blocker that helps limit your blood sugar absorption. It consists of different compounds found to have various health benefits, such as L-Arabinose, Coriolus Versicolor Polysacchride, Konjac-Mannan, Magnesium Stearate, Mint flavor: Menthol and Natural Colors. F21 not only does it help promote weight loss, (PSK) boosts your immune system response. In fact, for every gram of F21, you can block up to 20 grams of sugar (sucrose). The formula not only helps promote weight loss, it benefits the digestive system by allowing the blocked sucrose to support beneficial probiotic bacteria while the polysaccharide (PSK) boosts your immune system response.
But how does this formula break down the sugar in our bodies? There are basically three steps:
STEP 1
Sugar (sucrose) enters the body as a whole molecule.
STEP 2
The enzyme “sucrose” separates the sucrose molecule into two individual sugar molecules, Glucose and Fructose, which then enter the blood stream to be used. F21 inhibits sucrose from separating the sucrose molecule.
STEP 3
Instead of the sugars entering the blood stream, the whole sucrose molecule and F21 remain in the digestive tract and become prebiotics.
The main ingredient in F21 is L-Arabinose, which helps prevent sugar (sucrose) from being metabolized in the body. It also helps to satisfy any cravings for sugar. Another ingredient, Polysaccharide (PSK), is an extremely powerful antioxidant and immune-regulatory defender. It’s well researched anti-tumor, anti-infection and anti-inflammation effects help repair damaged cells and support the immune system.
Konjac-Mannan is a natural appetite suppressant. It acts as a trigger signaling your stomach to feel a little more satisfied and can help to reduce hunger cravings.
Prebiotics are indigestible fibers that are food for the probiotics. Both F21 and the whole sucrose molecule remain in the large intestine and become food for probiotics.
Menthol is an organic compound made synthetically or obtained from cornmint, peppermint or other mint oils. Menthol has local anesthetic and counterirritant qualities, and it is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. It is known to be a powerfully medicinal compound linked to several potential health benefits. Peppermint oil, a natural source of menthol, has been investigated as a treatment for several diseases and conditions.
Magnesium stearate, also called octadecanoic acid, is manufactured from both animal and vegetable oils and this is the reason why some nutritional supplements specify that the magnesium stearate used is sourced from vegetables.
