GLYCOSIDES (stevioside, rebaudioside) possess hypoglycaemic effects, promote blood pressure decrease, normalize immune system functions, exert reparative and bactericidal effects, and elevate the level of body bioenergetic properties.
- Steviosides are found exclusively in Stevia. These are phytosteroids, or steroids of plant origin – bioactive substances. They are similar in structure with steroids (hormones) of the human body. Steviosides also possess potent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects. They protect the body from harmful effects of stress, which, in its turn, prevents the development of many diseases. The fact that stevioside is a prototype of the female hormone progesterone plays an essential role in complex therapy of female diseases, especially during the climax, when the body hormonal balance is disrupted.

FLAVONOIDS (quercetin, rutin) strengthen vascular wall, exert antioxidant effects;
- quercetin is one of the best known and effective plant bioflavonoids. It prevents oxidation of LDL cholesterol, thus decreasing clotting potential. According to the studies, consumption of quercetin-containing products decreases the risk of development of cardiovascular system diseases and stroke. Besides, quercetin possesses antihistamine effects, inhibits production of histamine, serotonin, and leukotrienes; it exerts anti-inflammatory effects due to normalization of cortisone production in the body; it has antioxidant effects and inhibits free radicals of both exogenous and endogenous origin; decelerates ageing process of skin, cornea, and myocardium cells.
- rutin, an anti-sclerotic element, decreases permeability and fragility of capillaries, protects against haemorrhages, shortens blood clotting time, and enhances cardiac muscle contractility.
- hydroxycinnamic acids normalize digestion processes, prevent the growth of pathogenic microorganisms;
- oligosaccharides possess prebiotic effects, promoting appropriate food digestion;
- mineral substances (potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, silicon, zinc, copper, selenium, chromium) normalize body metabolism.
- proline helps to restore chondral surfaces of joints, strengthens ligaments and cardiac muscle, and improves skin condition due to increased collagen production and decrease of its loss over age.>
