Synopsis
Source of validity: Scientific
Rating (out of 5): 2
Rebaudioside, a primary glycoside compound found in the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana (commonly known as stevia), has drawn scientific interest due to its sweetening properties and potential metabolic benefits. Recent preclinical studies, primarily in animal models, have investigated the effects of rebaudioside A and related steviol glycosides on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Some rodent studies suggest that rebaudioside A may help reduce hepatic lipid accumulation, improve insulin sensitivity, and decrease markers of liver inflammation and oxidative stress. These effects are thought to be mediated through modulation of metabolic pathways, such as the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and regulation of lipid metabolism genes. However, it is important to note that the bulk of evidence is currently limited to animal experiments and in vitro studies. There are no robust, large-scale human clinical trials that directly demonstrate the efficacy of rebaudioside in treating or supporting fatty liver disease in humans. The use of rebaudioside for NAFLD is not based on traditional medicine practices but rather on emerging scientific research. Thus, while preliminary findings are promising, the current level of evidence supporting its use for fatty liver disease is low, warranting further clinical investigation before recommendations can be made.
