Steviol (Stevia)

Make a molecular structure model of Steviol (Stevia) glycosides out of Genuine Molymod Atoms & Bonds by Indigo Instruments

Steviol, aka Stevia, is an important diterpene that was isolated from the Stevia rebaudiana plant in 1931. The Steviol glycoside, or stevioside, is described structurally as a four-ring diterpene. It is used in the food industry as a natural low-calorie sweetener. Some people prefer it in place of synthetic sweeteners such as saccharin, aspartame, and sucralose.
