YaroslavDuring the 6th World Convention on Stevia Tasteful 2014, the Scientific Committee will allocate time to Dr Yaroslav Shevchenko, from Technische Universität Berlin, Germany to present his recent study about the role of Stevia rebaudiana to improve the antioxidant activity and palatability of green coffee extracts.


According Dr Shevcheko, "Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni is perennial plant originated from Latin America. The legal status of S. rebaudiana in the EU approves the use of steviol glycosides in food products. On the other hand, stevia as biological entity produces far greater variety of biologically active compounds of secondary nature. Steviol glycosides can be very helpful as a part of the sugar reducing strategy in different food products. The other biologically active compounds may play essential role in creating functional food products. In recent years the green coffee extracts gained on popularity. The coffee tree belongs to the Rubiaceae family, genus Coffea. Coffee has been for decades the most commercialized food product and most widely consumed beverage in the world (Clarke 2003). The raw green coffee extract in liquid form however have very peculiar taste".
