Health Promoting Properties



One of the most healthpromoting properties of agave nectar is its favorable glycemic profile Its sweetness comes primarily from a complex form of fructose called inulin Fructose is the sugar that occurs naturally in fruits and vegetables The carbohydrate in agave nectar has a low glycemic index which provides sweetness without the unpleasant sugar rush and unhealthful blood sugar spike caused by many other sugars Agave nectar is a delicious natural sweetener that can be used moderately by dieters some diabetics and health conscious cooks to replace highglycemic and refined sugars
