Concerns about health due to the growing consumer trend for naturally produced products and raw materials and the stevia consumption have increased the activity of sugar substitutes and alternatives.

Steviol glycosides are not absorbed intact. Once ingested, they pass through the upper gastrointestinal tract, including the stomach and small intestines. Once fully steviol glycosides reach the large intestine, colonic bacteria remove all glucose units, leaving only the spine, steviol. In humans, steviol is absorbed into the body, is rapidly modified in the liver, and is excreted in the urine as steviol glucuronide.

Studies have shown that there is no stevia infection in the body during the stevia metabolized process. 

This further nutrition review article further confirmed that looking at the biological fate of various low calorie sweets The study shows that all low-calorie sweets are metabolized very efficiently and excreted by the body quickly. Stevia reaction in the human body can lower blood pressure or interact with drugs that lower blood sugar.

This is mainly due to the poor absorption of stevia digestion tract which ultimately contributes to the fact that stevia has zero calories and does not increase blood glucose or insulin levels in digestion.

The naturalness of stevia related to its processing has been questioned, with some claiming that purification results in the formation of plant compounds. However, research published in the International Journal of Food Science and Technology has confirmed that steviol glycosides are not altered during the extraction and refining process to produce high-purity stevia extract.
