Stevioside Comparison

stevioside is the white powdered extract of the stevia leaf

Stevioside Taste

Stevioside has been reported to have a variety of tastes by users. Some users of stevioside find it to have a grassy taste, and/or licorice taste. Some users say it has a bitter after taste. The grassy taste associated with some stevioside brands is due to the processing, type of plant, and growth cycle they use. High quality premium grade stevioside like JAJA Stevioside™ has a clean, smooth taste.

Getting Pure Stevioside With Clean Taste 

First of all, you have to take the time and use skill to get the taste. Producing high grade stevia plants and stevioside is something you can not rush. That's the reason most companies don't get it right. Among the factors producing a pleasant taste are the percentage of steviosides in stevioside. The method of extraction, and as with any natural product other factors including: the strain of plant, the growth period, the growth conditions, among other factors. This means that just because two brands of stevioside have say 92% stevioside they may not taste the same.

Many companies selling stevioside call it stevia. That is not correct. Stevia is the plant (actually it is called stevia rebaudiana bertoni) you can read the history of stevia here.

People Buy Stevioside In Several Forms

The popular forms of stevia are crushed or ground stevia leaf. Crushed or ground stevia leaf is green in color and generally has a strong grassy taste. It is not an extract, but pure dried stevia leaf. And stevioside a white, tan, pale yellow crystalline powder.

Pure stevioside is white powder or slightly off white in color. It is not easy to tell unless put on a white background. Stevioside below 90% generally has a tan, or yellowish color.

Some people spend a lot of money to buy stevioside liquid concentrate. Save yourself the money, you don't need to pay someone to mix water into stevioside for you. Click here for the formulation.

Sure, But All Stevioside is the Same......Right?

It’s true there are similarities between stevioside products, but it’s the differences which make our JAJA Stevioside the best buy for you. Lets investigate those differences.

1. We have been selling stevia and stevioside on the internet since 1995. This means we know stevia and stevioside very well. We are in control of the facility doing the extraction of the stevioside from the stevia leaf. There is a lot of knowledge we have gained. A lot of companies have misconceptions because they don’t understand what they are selling or dealing with.


2. A longer growing period. The plants used for Honey Stevia Leaf™ and JAJA Stevioside have a longer growing cycle than others. If the farmers growing the plants stevia were not concerned about quality, they would use a rapid growth cycle, lower grade plant. They don’t. Additionally, rather than harvest the plants early, they are harvested at their peak flavor. This means that you get a better taste than others. You will enjoy JAJA Stevioside much more than the other brands, and get better use.


3. The bad tasting parts of the stevia plant such as roots, stems, and veins, etc. are painstakingly hand separated, leaving only the leaf canvas. This assures you will not get a grassy, licorice, or bitter taste prevalent in the other brands. JAJA Stevioside and Honey Stevia Leaf give you a very pleasant tasting product..


4. While any Stevioside is an extract from the leaf of the Stevia plant, methods of extraction vary. JAJA Stevioside is extracted using the Natural "Aqueous Extraction" process (Purified water extraction, Air dehydration). This all natural method of extraction results in a pure white Stevia Powder with no brownish coloring. When dissolved in water it leaves the water completely clear with no sediment at the bottom.


5. The skill level of the personnel doing the preparation for and the actual extraction is extremely high. They have many years of experience and know how to produce a high quality product.


6. Emperor's Herbologist JAJA Stevioside is tested to insure it has minimum 95.25 % Steviosides. It is also tested for taste and safety. Any Stevioside that does not meet the standards is destroyed or sold to other companies who are forbidden to label it as JAJA Stevioside. If you are a Diabetic read this.


7. Our pure stevia extract JAJA Stevioside is unadulterated. Unlike other companies who "cut" stevia extract (stevioside) with other ingredients. Absolutely nothing is added to our stevia extract. This insures you are getting the best quality, pure product.


8. Emperors Herbologist JAJA Stevioside is not bleached.


9. Nothing is added, no fillers, starch, silica, or maltodextrin or aspartame or anything else So you always get consistent high quality.

JAJA Stevioside Safety

Pure stevioside is a completely safe All Natural product that has 0 calories. 0 carbohydrates. 0 fat. 0 sugar. Pure stevioside does not promote cavities, weight gain, affect blood sugar, blood pressure, cause cancer, or have any negative side affects. It actually can reduce the craving for sweets. The US FDA says in their import alert that "Stevioside is reportedly 250-300 times sweeter than sugar and contributes no calories to the diet."

JAJA Stevioside is subjected to more stringent tolerances, than the vast majority of stevioside on the market. This is to assure you are getting the safest best quality stevioside. Among the tests are testing for stevioside percentage, bacteria counts, pathogens, lead concentrations, and other things that can be harmful. Any stevioside that does not pass the stringent tests is either destroyed, or sold to other companies who are forbidden to label it as JAJA Stevioside. When you buy JAJA Stevioside, you are buying the safest, most qualified, best tasting stevioside of any on the market.....Bar None! Read our spec's.

It has an outstanding taste when compared to other brands 90% or even 96% stevioside. JAJA Stevioside has a vastly superior taste to any on the market. It has been sold in Japan for over 25 years.

Emperor's Herbologist believes that the best and least expensive form of Stevioside is pure unadulterated stevioside that has nothing added to it. It should be in a very fine powder/crystal form to give you the best value, best taste, and best results.

To understand this, you should realize that unadulterated stevioside is a very light weight, fluffy substance. When you buy stevioside in the liquid form (click here for recipe), the company selling it has taken dry stevioside powder/crystal and mixed it into water and/or alcohol. Water and alcohol weigh far more than stevioside. So in effect you are getting less stevioside at a higher price. The only benefit to buying liquid stevioside is that it is easier to measure the serving size (1 or 2 drops).

Their Dirty Secret - What You Should Know

Some companies will use low grade stevioside and mix foreign products into it. Examples we have seen are: maltodextrin (a complex carbohydrate), FOS, silica, and starch. Stevioside does not naturally contain starch, maltodextrin, FOS, or silica, etc.

When carbohydrates are introduced into stevioside it is no longer a carbohydrate free product. Additionally, there are reports of companies mixing artificial sweeteners into stevioside. Why? Adding an artificial sweetener to a low grade stevioside only enhances the company profit, and does nothing for you the consumer.

Business being what it is some companies believe that they can cheat their customers. Companies who do that are also the same type of companies who will copy this information and post it to their sites as their own.

By purchasing stevia leaf direct from the local native Chinese farmers who are independent business people, and processing in China using native Chinese workers in a facility controlled by us to assure quality we are directly supporting the local farmers and improving their lives and the lives of their families. And it is being done ethically.

Important Information Regarding Cost per Serving

Recently it has come to our attention that some web sites are now really going out of their way to attempt to defraud people who are interested in buying stevioside. This can not stand!

We had several people call and ask why JAJA Stevioside is $93.20 for ½ Kilo (1.1 lbs) while some other stevioside is selling for between $14.99 and $21.99 a pound. That is a very good question. Very good indeed.

Here's why...

If you compare the serving size and quantity you will find that JAJA Stevioside serving size is the size of a sesame seed. That is because JAJA Stevioside is 100% pure. It does not ”Start with pure stevioside“ and then add Erythitol, or silica, or FOS, or whatever filler happens to be the cheapest available like the other cheaper brands do.

One in particular that uses Erythitol has a serving size of 1/3 or 3/4 of a tea spoon. Their 1 pound container has 453 servings. Where JAJA Stevioside (pure stevioside) has over 38,000 servings. Remember a serving of table sugar is One Table Spoon. A serving of JAJA Stevioside is about the size of ONE Sesame seed.

So comparing prices...
$93.20/38000 = $0.00245 per serving compared to (and let's go low)
$14.00/453 = .031 per serving

That means that JAJA Stevioside costs far Less than a penny a serving, while the other brands - even at $14.00 a pound cost 3 pennies per serving! So which saves you money?

Purity versus a product made with really cheap fillers. You are intelligent. You decide.

Lets Make This Clearer

Take the dollar amount per serving (0.031) and multiply that by the amount of servings you get in 1/2 kg of JAJA Stevioside 38,000 and do you know what you get?... If you said ripped off by them, you are correct.

Don't Get Ripped Off

Look at the numbers!

$0.031 X 38000 = $1,178

And that ($1,178) is what you would pay to get an amount equal to the number of servings in ½Kg JAJA Stevioside which costs only $93.20... Gives You A Savings of $1084.80... Quite a difference, don't you agree?

We don't play games because we don't have to. Our product and quality are good enough to speak for themselves.

A word on Rebaudiosides

The stevioside molecule consists of stevioside, rebaudioside, and glycoside and a portion of other materials (water for instance). So when you see a company bragging on a super high percentage of rebaudioside, don't be fooled by their games. They are only trying to confuse you. They can do it because you are looking for high quality, and you have questions. You would expect a company selling a product to know about it. NOT go about misinforming and cheating customers and potential customers.

If someone claims to have 40% rebaudioside it really does not mean much. It means that the percentage of the stevioside molecule allegedly has 40% rebaudioside. So if you are getting a stevioside claiming to be 96% with 40% rebaudioside you would be getting 40% of 96%. However it is highly unlikely that they can (1.) consistently produce to that level, and (2.) actually measure rebaudioside content.

We have been selling JAJA Stevioside for over 10 years. Our facility in China exports world wide, including Japan (the country with the strictest regulations on import quality and safety). Many of the trading companies in China go to our facility and buy some samples, then sell them to customers (a lot of the companies here in the USA). When it comes time to order, these trading companies go to a low quality cheap producer instead of our facility in China and switch to low quality product.

JAJA Stevioside does not change taste or quality from batch to batch. But the choice of what you get is up to you.
