The Claim
Stevioside may improve postprandial glucose control and lipid profiles in adults with overweight or type 2 diabetes, based on multiple randomized controlled trials showing significant reductions in blood glucose and LDL cholesterol after daily consumption.
What the research says
Roughly balanced
Support and challenge are close. The picture may shift as more studies come in.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Taking stevioside every day might help people who are overweight or have type 2 diabetes keep their blood sugar and bad cholesterol lower after meals.
