FDA has issued a “no objections” GRAS approval for SG95, a new stevia product from PureCircle (Oak Brook, IL). The product’s GRAS approval not only covers seven previously GRAS-approved steviol glycosides, but also two newly approved glycosides, Rebaudioside D and F, contained in SG95.

SG95 is ideally suited for applications combining both sugar and stevia, says PureCircle-products marketed for partial caloric reduction. The company is preparing for immediate commercialization.
