The leaf extract contains steviosides which are very sweet tasting and non-caloric, but also have beneficial effects on health. It has also been shown in humans that steviosides reduce postprandial blood glucose in type 2 diabetics, indicating improved glucose metabolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThere are multiple hypoglycemic effects of stevioside, one of which is a dose-dependent reduction in phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK). Reducing the level of PEPCK decreases hepatic glucose production and improves glucose metabolism. Stevioside also acts directly on pancreatic beta cells to increase blood sugar stabilizer secretion.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tHerbal Select Stevia Liquid Extract Directions:\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t\u003cstrong\u003eAdult Dosage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use daily in hot \u0026amp; cold drinks, cereals, sprinkled on fruits, food preparation and making preserves.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tRisk Information: Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you have high blood pressure or diabetes or are pregnant or breastfeeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\r\n\tHerbal Select Stevia Liquid Extract Ingredients:\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tStevia liquid leaf extract (Stevia rebaudiana) in a base of vegetable glycerine and water\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupporting Science:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003e\r\n\t\t\u003cspan style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003eJeppesen PB, Gregersen S, Poulsen CR, Hermansen K.
