Since the first sugar cane was brought from exotic South Pacific and Caribbean islands generations ago, Americans have had a love affair with foods that are super sweet but lack true nourishment. This has led to the development of literally thousands of good tasting but nutritionless foods that have contributed to childhood and adult obesity, energy depletion, mood swings, decreased brain function, and countless other negative effects on human health. Nature has also provided help in the form of an amazing herb from Paraguay, Stevia rebaudiana, and Planetary Herbals has provided help with its introduction of EarthSweet™ Stevia with FOS.

Planetary Herbals EarthSweet™ Stevia with FOS contains a highly potent stevia extract containing 90% steviosides, the primary active components of stevia. Stevia has been used historically to improve digestion and gastrointestinal function. A healthy gastrointestinal tract is important for digestion, assimilation, the efficient burning of calories, the elimination of toxins, and healthy immune functions. Modern research suggests stevia has a positive effect on the pancreas, the primary sugar regulating organ of the body. This makes EarthSweet™ Stevia with FOS an ideal supplement for those wanting to maintain balanced blood sugar levels or as part of a healthy weight management program.

EarthSweet™ contains a concentrated extract of stevia leaves and fructooligosaccharides (FOS) derived from the roots of the Chicory plant (Cichorium intiba). FOS is a delicious, fiber-rich group of compounds that also serve as an herbal intestinal prebiotic. Prebiotics are substances that promote the body's natural production of friendly flora, most specifically, lactobacillus and bifidobacteria.

Planetary Herbals is dedicated to bringing you the finest herbal supplements modern research has to offer. And now compelling research shows how the ingredients in EarthSweet™ Stevia with FOS can help maintain normal blood sugar levels and a healthier lifestyle.
