It is used as a natural sweetener and a sugar substitute as it contains rebaudioside-A and stevioside, which are the main cause of sweetness without any side effects on health. The sweetness in the leaves of the stevia rebaudiana plant comes from the glycosides present in it. It has also found new applications in the cosmetics and medicine industries due to its medicinal and nutritional qualities.
