Dieticians and Nutritionists recently had their annual summit and expo in Denver in October. Over 800 of these professionals were sampled with natural flavor concentrates that have just a hint of stevia and 0 carbs. Their reactions were overwhelming. They not only thought they delivered on taste, but they also were excited that they had no carbs.
The Dieticians and Nutritionists that were surveyed at the expo practiced in the areas of weight loss and diabetics. This group of practitioners appreciates the storyline that we’re drinking more calories than ever. About four hundred and fifty calories a day, that’s a tremendous twenty nine pounds yearly consumers have to work off. Collectively, they know the value in a 0 carb, 0 calorie flavor concentrate used to enhance the flavor of water while promoting hydration.
Dieticians and Nutritionists are challenged in the treatment of weight loss and diabetics when it comes to beverages. Their patients are not able to drink high caloric beverages so they have very limited options for beverages and soft drinks. Natural flavor drops and concentrates with 0 carbs were a welcome recommendation for these professionals.
Here’s the issue with most soft drink beverages. Juices, sodas and pops are filled with high fructose corn syrups that are usually nothing more than sweetened water. A lot of these drinks also contain artificial sweeteners that promote insulin, so they are not a solution for diabetics.
Here’s a great side advantage to using natural flavor concentrates: they promote proper hydration. When water tastes better, consumers will probably drink more water. The better water tastes, the more you will drink, and it’s that easy.
For the first time, Dieticians and Nutritionists have a go to product that serves as a low cost alternative and no carb product to recommend to their patients and consumers alike. Flavoring drops and concentrates are natural flavorings of fruit, berry or citrus and contain just a hint of stevia to enhance the flavoring, not sweeten it. Some natural flavor drops contain low carbs and low calories, others on the market contain 0 Calories, 0 Carbs, 0 Fats.
Stevia is a natural sweetener that is ok for diabetics. Stevia is two to three hundred times sweeter than sugar and is heat stable to three hundred and degrees. Stevia is a great natural sweetener to enhance any flavoring application, either hot or cold.
