Steviol glycosides, extracted from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, have gained widespread acceptance as a non-caloric sweetening alternative used in the food industry. Despite their growing popularity, the potential consequences of these sweeteners on marine ecosystems have not been thoroughly examined. This review aims to outline current knowledge and identify areas for future research.
