BACKGROUND: Stevia is a plant-based non-nutritive sweetener. Acute effects of stevia ingestion on glycemia and hormonal responses have not been fully investigated. OBJECTIVE: This objective of this study was to evaluate the acute effects of beverages containing stevia alone and in combination with glucose on glycemic, hormonal, and appetite responses. METHODS: This study evaluated three cohorts of n=23 individuals with either normal weight (NW), overweight (OW), or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) for which each individual completed four test conditions in a randomized sequence crossover study design. The four test conditions were beverages containing stevia (75.6 mg steviol equivalents), water, glucose (30 g), and stevia+glucose (30 g glucose+75.6 mg steviol equivalents). Blood samples were collected before and for 180 min after beverage consumption. Assessments included net area under the curve (niAUC) and incremental maximal concentration values for plasma glucose, insulin, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-1, glucagon, and PYY. Appetite was assessed with visual-analog scale questions and energy consumption during an ad libitum meal. RESULTS: Responses to the stevia beverage did not differ significantly from those for water alone, and stevia + glucose did not differ significantly from glucose alone for any of the three groups. CONCLUSION: Acute stevia consumption did not materially alter responses for glycemia or hormones involved in glucose and appetite regulation, appetite ratings, or energy intake at a subsequent meal.

BACKGROUND: The gut hormone fragment peptide YY3-36 (PYY) reduces appetite and food intake when infused into subjects of normal weight. In common with the adipocyte hormone leptin, PYY reduces food intake by modulating appetite circuits in the hypothalamus. However, in obesity there is a marked resistance to the action of leptin, which greatly limits its therapeutic effectiveness. We investigated whether obese subjects were also resistant to the anorectic effects of PYY. METHODS: We compared the effects of PYY infusion on appetite and food intake in 12 obese and 12 lean subjects in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study. The plasma levels of PYY, ghrelin, leptin, and insulin were also determined. RESULTS: Caloric intake during a buffet lunch offered two hours after the infusion of PYY was decreased by 30 percent in the obese subjects (P<0.001) and 31 percent in the lean subjects (P<0.001). PYY infusion also caused a significant decrease in the cumulative 24-hour caloric intake in both obese and lean subjects. PYY infusion reduced plasma levels of the appetite-stimulatory hormone ghrelin. Endogenous fasting and postprandial levels of PYY were significantly lower in obese subjects (the mean [+/-SE] fasting PYY levels were 10.2+/-0.7 pmol per liter in the obese group and 16.9+/-0.8 pmol per liter in the lean group, P<0.001). Furthermore, the fasting PYY levels correlated negatively with the body-mass index (r = -0.84, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: We found that obese subjects were not resistant to the anorectic effects of PYY. Endogenous PYY levels were low in the obese subjects, suggesting that PYY deficiency may contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity.
