Stevia Powder is a natural sweetener with antioxidant activity. Stevia Powder can downregulate pro fibrotic pathways in cirrhotic rats, including reduced hepatic myofibroblasts and decreased expression of matrix metalloproteinases MMP2 and MMP13, upregulate anti fibrotic molecule Smad7, prevent serum necrosis and elevated bile stasis markers, thereby inhibiting the development of liver fibrosis[1][2].
