NUTRITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS AND APPLICATIONS: Quality leaves or whole leaf extracts of Stevia rebaudiana contain protein, fiber, carbohydrates, iron, phosphorus, calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, zinc, rutin, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and more! Stevia has been noted as beneficial and safe for diabetics and hypoglycemics who can enjoy the natural sweetness of the herb without any adverse effects on blood glucose levels. Stevia contains no calories and because it is 70-400 times sweeter than refined sugar it is an excellent alternative sweetener for cooking and baking. In addition, stevia has been noted as beneficial because it: 1) regulates blood sugar effectively, 2) enhances energy level, 3) enhances mental acuity, 4) lowers elevated blood pressure (but does not affect normal blood pressure), 5) exhibits antibacterial properties (which are excellent in helping to combat tooth decay, gum disease, and possibly in detering the onset of colds and flu), 6) aids in weight loss (reducing cravings for sweets and fatty foods and lessening hunger sensations), 7) helps to improve digestion, gastrointestinal function and eases the upset stomach, and 7) is an excellent additive to skin care due to its tightening, smoothing, softening, and healing effects on skin. The FOS (fructooligosaccharides) in Sweet Vibes™ is generated from the enzymatic fermentation of cane sugar, has half the sweetness of sugar, and is less than 5 percent digestible carbohydrate in the forms of glucose, sucrose and fructose. The other 96 percent is essentially non-digestible in humans, but is consumed instead by beneficial bacteria (probiotics) in the intestine. It has been noted that FOS can significantly enhance the growth of probiotics. These friendly bacteria enhance the digestive process, ward off pathogenic bacteria such as Candida albicans, and produce certain needed B vitamins. INGREDIENTS: 1 shake of Sweet Vibes™ contains approximately 240 mg of fructooligosaccharides, 12 mg of Stevia rebaudiana leaf extract, and nothing else. USAGE: 1 shake of Sweet Vibes™ is approximately equal in sweetening power to a teaspoon or more of refined sugar--without the negative effects of sugar. Sweet Vibes™ is a supplement for improved intestinal health that can also serve as an alternative to artificial sweeteners. It is safe for diabetics, hypoglycemics, people watching their weight, and others wishing to restrict sugar intake. It may be used in cooking and baking instead of sugar or artificial sweeteners. Sweet Vibes™ does not contain wheat, rye, oats, barley, soy, dairy products, artificial colors, preservatives, additives, or flavorings.
