Background: It is believed that diabetes has undesirable impacts on the function of the reproductive system in men like decreasing plasma testosterone levels and sperm count and making apoptosis in the testicular germ cells. There are some chemical drugs for improving the complications, but it has been proven that chemicals have many side effects in the patients. Hence, herbal medicines due to anti-oxidant properties, less cost, and fewer side effects can be beneficial substitutions for chemical drugs. Nowadays, Stevia

“…González, et al [18] with bioactive compound content and antioxidant activity. Kim, et al [45] results, showed that the leaf and callus extracts from stevia contained high radical scavenging activities against free radicals of hydroxyl and superoxide anion. The authors also report that folic acid (52.18 mg/100 g) was a major component, followed by vitamin C, and that the total phenolic and flavonoid contents were found to be 130.…”

The plant Stevia rebaudiana is mainly found in tropical and subtropical regions from western North America to South America. This genus is having near about 240 species of shrubs and herbs in the sunflower family (Asteraceae). It exhibits various properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antiyeast, cardiotonic, diuretic, hypoglycemic, hypotensive tonic, and vasodilator effect. It is an important source of a number of antioxidants, for example, benzoic acid, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, rozmaric acid, protocatechuic acid, salicylic acid, and their derivatives and flavonoids including campherol derivatives, catechin, and its derivatives, epicatechin, luteolin, and its derivatives, rutin, and its derivatives. Day by day, there is remarkable increase in demand of high potency sweeteners. The increasing number of diabetic patients and health conscious individuals would push forward the need for alternatives to sugar. The extract from leaves of Stevia is 200 times sweeter than sugar (glucose, fructose, sucrose, maltose, and lactose). Stevia is a potential alternative source for replacing artificial sweeteners such as saccharin, aspartame, and asulfam.
