The history of Lakanto began more than a thousand years ago in remote corners of Southeast Asia, when Buddhist monks living in those places first discovered an amazing plant, the sweet and juicy fruits of which had a restorative effect on the body. Over time, the fruits were named Luo Han Guo (translated as the great saint) in honor of the monks who gave them to the world. Traditionally, Luo Han Guo fruits have been used in oriental medicine as an antipyretic and immunostimulating agent, cough medicine and many other diseases.
