Did you know that regular ketchup has 3x as much added sugar as soda?

Cut the sugar, up the flavor and nutrition, in one of the world's most popular condiments: tomato ketchup

What goes perfect with hamburgers, fries and hot dogs? Ketchup!

But did you know - a third of your ketchup is sugar?

Thom King, the master of all things sweet in the universe; shows you how to make all natural, homemade, gourmet, no added sugar ketchup with stevia as the sweetener.

This low sugar ketchup is delicious and safe for diabetics as well as anybody who wants to cut the sugar out.

Steviva Brands, Inc. is dedicated to bring consumers the finest quality products available. We want to make the world a better place. We do our part by helping our customers use less sugar and increase their well being.

We start our process with clear clean pure water and the highest quality of stevia leaves available. This is where the aqueous extraction process takes place. This what we think makes our stevia better than the rest.

Stevia is an extraordinarily sweet herb. Stevia is 200-300 times sweeter than sugar. Stevia is calorie-free, so weight watchers love stevia. It is ideal for children since it prevents cavities. Unlike sugar, stevia does not trigger a rise in blood sugar. You won't get a sudden burst of energy followed by fatigue and a need for another "fix." Most importantly for our purposes, stevia does not feed yeast or other microorganisms, and stevia increases energy and aids digestion by stimulating the pancreas.

Since artificial sweeteners are banned in Japan, the Japanese are the greatest consumers of stevia. Stevia, a member of the chrysanthemum family (closely related to tarragon and chamomile and distantly related to lettuce, artichokes, safflower oil, and sunflower seeds and oil), is totally safe. Stevia has been used for centuries by the Indians of South America where stevia grows wild.
