Rebaudioside A also had the least bitterness and aftertaste.

Rebaudioside A, in particular, is formed from stevioside.

The two primary glycosides, stevioside and rebaudioside A, are used as natural sweeteners in many countries.

Richardson said the Rebaudioside A versions are as close to sugar as anything ever created.

To produce rebaudioside A commercially, stevia plants are dried and subjected to a water extraction process.

It is made with Rebaudioside A and Erythritol, which have been proved to be safe for human intake.

The company has more recently been involved manufacture of a sweetener based on Rebaudioside A, made from part of the stevia leaf.

Rebaudioside A has the least bitterness of all the steviol glycosides in the Stevia rebaudiana plant.

The two primary contributing glycosides, Stevioside and Rebaudioside A, are not digested or absorbed by the body.

Rebiana is the trade name for high-purity rebaudioside A, a steviol glycoside that is 200 times as sweet as sugar.

A commercial steviol glycoside mixture extracted from the plant was found to have about 80% stevioside, 8% rebaudioside A, and 0.6% rebaudioside C.

Stevioside and rebaudioside A were first isolated in 1931 by French chemists, Bridel and Lavielle.

Blue California To Offer Rebaudioside A, a Purified Stevia Compound.

Rebaudioside A (sometimes shortened to "Reb A") is a steviol glycoside that is 200 times sweeter than sugar.

In 2008, the Food and Drug Administration approved the use of a highly purified form of stevia known as rebaudioside A as a food additive.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determined in December 2008 that rebaudioside A is safe for inclusion as a food additive.

Please note that when companies sell " Steviosides" they often refer to both Stevioside and Rebaudioside A, not just the "Stevioside" glycoside.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently issued a no objection letter with respect to Rebaudioside A, the stevia extract used in PureVia.

According to the Truvia website, Rebiana is derived from stevia leaves by steeping them in water and purifying the resultant extract to obtain the rebaudioside A exclusively.

What the FDA must decide is whether Rebaudioside A is safe enough to be used as an additive in processed foods, where consumers may not realize it is there.

Purified Rebaudioside A is allowed since December 2008 as a food additive (sweetener), sold under various trade names, and classified as "generally recognized as safe" ("GRAS").

However, there has not been a substantial amount of an independent scientific research done on the safety of rebaudioside A that was not funded by the companies that produce and distribute products that include them.

Since the Food and Drug Administration approved the use of rebaudioside A (Reb A) as a general purpose sweetener in December, major beverage marketers have been rushing new stevia-infused drinks into stores.

Although both steviol and rebaudioside A have been found to be mutagenic in laboratory in vitro testing, these effects have not been demonstrated for the doses and routes of administration to which humans are exposed.

According to a May release from Cargill and Coke, Truvia, also known as rebiana, is 'the first consistent, high-purity sweetener composed of rebaudioside A, the best-tasting part of the stevia leaf.'

The agency says the currently marketed reformulation, Reb A, is “generally recognized as safe.”

Cargill received certification and sells Reb A to different beverage and food companies as an ingredient.

Rebaudioside A (sometimes shortened to "Reb A") is a steviol glycoside that is 200 times sweeter than sugar.

Also goes by: Reb A, rebiana, Truvia, PureVia, Enliten, and Sun Crystals.

Both Truvia and PureVia use Reb A as an ingredient, although Truvia's label lists it as "rebiana."

PureCircle Corporate VP of Supply Chain Dorn Wenninger said, "This is a very significant development for the Reb A and stevia industries.

Whole Earth Sweetener Company also received certification; PepsiCo, which co-owns the PureVia brand, uses Reb A in Trop50 and SoBe Lifewater.

Since the Food and Drug Administration approved the use of rebaudioside A (Reb A) as a general purpose sweetener in December, major beverage marketers have been rushing new stevia-infused drinks into stores.

The auspicious prospects, Rannekleiv suggests, are related to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration's certifying Reb A as GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) last December.

PureCircle is a pioneer in the extraction of natural goodness from plants and the world's leading producer of high-purity Rebaudioside A (Reb A), with a vertically integrated supply chain operating in three continents.

The key is something called rebaudioside A — Reb A for short — the best-tasting component of the stevia leaf, which has a profile very similar to sugar with respect to onset, intensity and duration of sweetness.

The fact that the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has sanctioned Reb A for use increases the possibility that it will also be sanctioned in Europe - another key market,' says Ambrian in a note. '

Ingredients: Filtered water, sugar, natural flavor, citric acid, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), green tea extract, caramel color, Reb A (purified stevia extract), guarana seed extract, panax ginseng root extract, rose hips extract.

Trop50, introduced by Tropicana in 2009, delivers the benefits of orange juice with 50 percent less sugar and calories, and no artificial sweeteners (Note: Has Reb A or PureVia which is a form of the plant Stevia - but is chemically altered and changed.)

What the boy saw then told him the man was probably a Reb.
