These two tests differ in only one respect Troponyms (each of the following is one way to differ): depart; deviate; diverge; vary (be at variance with; be out of line with)
Other studies have also found that stevia may help improve cholesterol levels and blood pressure. On the negative side of things, there is one study that indicates consuming stevia in very large amounts could effect hormones because its glycosides have a similar structure to plant hormones such as gibberellin. But many herbs including ginkgo biloba also have this and if consumed in moderation is a non issue.
Since stevia extract is free from carbohydrates, it does not raise blood sugar levels (or calories, unless fillers are added, like dextrose or maltodextrin). Stevia does, however, raise insulin levels according to some research, which can be both good and bad. A reason why I stay away from sugar is because it raises both blood sugar and insulin. Over time, spikes in blood sugar can cause chronic inflammation, a key contributor to aging, cancer, and even metabolic syndrome. High blood sugar and insulin levels also cause insulin resistance, or type 2 diabetes.
