Stevia and Weight Loss

Nutrition, healthy eating, and exercise are all important factors in most weight loss programs.  Stevia can also be easily integrated into any weight loss program as an alternative to sugar.  Since stevia is sugarless and contains no calories, it can aide in lowering an individuals daily calorie intake. Calorie reduction and increased exercise, generally makes weight loss easier to sustain for the long term.  For example, on a 2000 calorie diet, if an individual can reduce his/her calorie intake to 1500 calories per day, they can generally lose a pound per week.
