🌵Agave syrup is not healthful table sugar replacement. Unlike the sugar
which is broken down by body to 50% of glucose and 50% of fructose, agave breaks down up to 90% of fructose!!!
That is higher fructose contents than in high fructose corn syrup (coca cola !) ! This has a great potential to cause adverse health effect and even fatty liver disease.
🫚Chicory root contains only 5% sugar which is 15 times less than agave, maple or even honey! Chicory is plant based, natural and vegan friendly, it contains a lot of fibre! BUT ❗️Because chicory is processed and this fiber breaks down rapidly, it can trigger gas, bloating, abdominal pain and gut rumbling is some people!
🌴 Date syrup: While too much of glucose can cause your blood sugar to spike, too much fructose can stress your liver. Date syrup, however, breaks down in equal amount of each! So your blood sugar doesn’t spike and your liver can relax.
A tablespoon of Date syrup contains more than twice of Potassium, Calcium and Magnesium levels as honey! And up to 10 times more antioxidants!
🍯 Wondering why honey didn’t make this list ? Honey is wonderful, healthy product of nature, but gets dangerous when heated.
Never cook or add honey in your hot drinks❗️
