Zabo Foods Unveils Zabvia its Liquid Stevia Produc

Zabo Foods Unveils Zabvia its Liquid Stevia ProductOnline PR News – 29-November-2012 –ORLANDO, Florida Zabo Foods (www.zabofoods.com), a wholly owned subsidiary of SportsQuest, Inc. (SPQS), has made a big splash in the billion-dollar Stevia business with the upcoming launch of its liquid Stevia extract, Zabvia.Zabvia is a zero-calorie, low-glycemic liquid sweetening agent that is 300 times sweeter than table sugar. Derived from the leaf of the Stevia plant, Stevia is used as a sugar replacement for the health- and diet-conscious. Currently, consumer-ready Stevia is processed and marketed in three different formulations: powder, pill form and transparent liquid extract. The powder and pill forms require a base of 93% maltodextrin (corn flour) and 7% Stevia. The body converts maltodextrin into glucose (sugar), negating the intent of using the product as a sugar replacement. Zabo Foods’ Stevia extract is 100% organically grown and derived. It differs from other market products in that the only chemical added to the final product is ascorbic acid, an organic compound that raises the extract’s antioxidant level.Zabvia will be Zabo Foods’ first branded Stevia rollout. The product is poised to become the most desired sweetener available, packaged in the most environmentally-friendly packaging.“This is the next big thing,” says Rick Sitzer, President of Zabo Foods. “We are currently looking at releasing Zabvia at a lower retail price than the currently available liquid Stevia products, thanks to very favorable margins under our agreement with FDN Trade International.”                                                What Differentiates Zabvia From the Competition?In order to preserve all the beneficial nutrient properties that the Stevia plant possesses, Zabo Foods does not clarify its product, nor does it utilize chemicals in its harvesting or transformation processes. In turn, Zabo Foods suggests using an adequate amount of Zabvia in order to avoid changes in the characteristics of the foods on which consumers will be using it.The current sweetener market contains many products that are of synthetic or chemical origin, such as aspartame. Some of known side effects of chemical sweetener use are diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, epilepsy, and diabetic complications (Source: Aspartame Consumer Safety Network ACSN, Possible Mission International). In contrast, Zabvia is eminently organic and is not mixed with any other sweetener, nor is it of chemical origin. It is important to note that in some cases, chemical sweetening products have the potential of becoming toxic or generating serious secondary side effects if they are mixed with Stevia in any way.Also available are a variety of vegetable-based “natural” sweeteners, derived from sources such as sugar cane, wood, and starches: xylitol, sorbitol, maltodextrose, and high-fructose corn syrup. Unfortunately, even these natural sugar replacements contain calories that are ultimately converted by the human body into glucose (sugar). Zabvia is a true zero-calorie food and is not absorbed by the body. Zabo Foods recommends that every time someone purchases Zabvia or any other product, they read the label carefully in order to avoid purchasing a product that may affect one’s health.Key Words: sweeteners, sugar, natural, Stevia liquid, Stevia sugar, Stevia extract, Zabo foodsStevia: Zabo Foods Launches ZabviaCAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:This press release contains "forward-looking statements" as defined under the U.S. federal securities laws.
