Understanding Stevia: The Natural Sweetener in Fresh Field Performance Protein Powders
Introduction
In our journey to offer clean, nutritious, and high-performance products at Fresh Field Performance and Nutrition, we've chosen Stevia from Reb A as our sweetener. This natural, zero-calorie ingredient not only ensures great taste but also aligns with our commitment to minimal and clean ingredients. Let's delve into why Stevia is an excellent choice for our whey protein powders.
What is Stevia?
Stevia is a plant-based sweetener, derived from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, a herb native to South America. For centuries, it has been used for its sweetening properties and medicinal benefits.
The Reb A Difference
Reb A, short for Rebaudioside A, is a high-purity extract from the Stevia leaf. It's known for having a cleaner, less bitter taste compared to other Stevia extracts. This makes it an ideal choice for enhancing the flavor of our protein powders without compromising on quality or health benefits.
