Description: Agave nectar is sweeter than honey but, thanks to its low glycemic index, it does not cause sudden spikes in blood sugar levels.
Organic Agave Syrup is a natural sweetener extracted from the "Blue Agave" plant. The Aztecs revered agave as a gift from the gods and used the liquid from its core to flavor their foods and drinks. It is an excellent alternative due to its remarkable flavor and health properties.
Organic Agave Syrup is widely used as a sweetener and has gained popularity as a substitute for sugar in recent years. Unlike sugar, it primarily contains fructose and significantly less glucose. This makes the syrup a "healthier option," as it is a sweetener with a much lower glycemic index compared to regular sugar. In other words, replacing sugar with agave syrup results in smaller increases in blood sugar, lower triglycerides and heart disease risk, and increased levels of good cholesterol, leading to better blood glucose management.
The sweetness of organic Agave Syrup mainly comes from inulin (a prebiotic plant fiber), and because it is sweeter than regular sugar, it can be used in smaller portions to sweeten foods or beverages.
Organic Agave Syrup is added to confectionery products (chocolate, caramel), desserts (cakes, cookies), jams, cereals, energy bars, snacks, dairy products, and beverages (coffee, juice, smoothies) to provide that distinctive sweet flavor within a healthy diet.
Additionally, organic Agave Syrup is used in lotions, hair products, face masks, and oils.
Agave is a succulent plant from which syrup and tequila are produced. Agave contains a large amount of inulin, a polysaccharide that is particularly beneficial for gut flora as it helps promote the growth of friendly bacteria. Agave consists mainly of fructose and should be consumed in moderation.
The thermal processing of agave leaves to produce the syrup does not exceed 45 degrees Celsius at any stage of production, ensuring that all nutritional components are preserved. The syrup has a delightful taste, reminiscent of honey and caramel.
