Abstract:
In the position paper of the American Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics on nonnutritive sweeteners, stevia and steviol glycosides are listed as save products that can be used in a nutritional regimen recommendable for general use. According to current FAO/WHO data, the average nutritional intake of stevia glycoside is approximately 1-2 mg/kg body weight, thus not exceeding the recommended accepted daily intake (ADI) of 4 mg/kg body weight. The Nutrition Committee of the Austrian Academy of Paediatrics demands clear declarations of the amounts of stevia and steviol glycosides for all nutrients of relevance to children and adolescents (fruit juice, carbonated beverages, cow's milk, etc.) in order to calculate the actual nutritional intake of stevia and steviol glycosides.
