스테비오사이드

Stevioside is a diterpene glycoside that is rubusoside in which the hydroxy group at position 2 of the allylic beta-D-glucoside has been converted to the corresponding beta-D-glucoside. It is a natural herbal sweetener that is 250-300 times sweeter than sucrose (though with a bitter aftertaste), extracted from the Stevia rebaudiana plant native to South America. It has a role as an antioxidant, a hypoglycemic agent, an antineoplastic agent, a sweetening agent, an anti-inflammatory agent and a plant metabolite. It is a beta-D-glucoside, a bridged compound, an ent-kaurane diterpenoid, a tetracyclic diterpenoid and a diterpene glycoside. It is functionally related to a rubusoside and a steviol.
