BGG World (Irvine, CA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of HB Natural Ingredients (HBNI), announced that it will be featuring its Vitosa Stevia at the upcoming Natural Products Expo West in Anaheim, CA. The sweetener is said to closely mimic sugar, and lacks the bitterness and aftertaste frequently associated with other stevia products. Available in three different taste profiles, Vitosa is water soluble, and has dual functionality, serving as a sweetness enhancer and as a standalone sweetener that is FDA and FEMA GRAS (generally recognized as safe).
“With the introduction of Vitosa, we have taken a product that was poorly viewed in the sweetener category due to a bitter aftertaste and made something extremely palatable, yet healthy for individuals seeking reduced sugar intake,” said Shaheen Majeed, CEO of BGG Americas and HBNI USA.
BGG will be exhibiting Vitosa and other ingredients at booth #4645.
