A couple months back I popped into my local Whole Food items Market simply because I wished to invest in pure barbecue sauce. As I was searching at the various brand names, it was engaging to see that agave nectar was in a few of them. I was chatting with one of the girls who labored there and she commented, "Well, agave is better than sugar."

In some way agave nectar has come to be the darling and nutritious selection for sugar lovers everywhere. It is in anything from breakfast cereals to soy ice cream. But it turns out that agave nectar may perhaps not be healthier just after all because it really is definitely high in fructose. Sugar is fifty percent fructose and 50 p.c glucose. Superior fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is about fifty five % fructose and 45 percent glucose (although the number of fructose in sugary drinks can be as high as 65 %). Nonetheless agave nectar can consist of as much as ninety two p.c fructose!

So what's mistaken with fructose? Considering that fructose is metabolized in the liver, ingesting way too substantially can cause fatty liver and substantial triglycerides. Fatty liver can negatively affect liver function. Significant triglycerides can boost your risk of heart sickness. Fructose can also make insulin, the hormone that lowers blood sugar, less effective. Therefore, if you are selecting agave rather of other sweeteners for wellbeing factors, you are lacking the boat.

There are a several fantastic details about low GI sweetener. One particular is that it can be sweeter than sugar. So you could use less and eat fewer calories with the very same level of sweetness as sugar. Curiously, I have noticed a lot of companies swap to agave, but I don't see fewer grams of sugar on the brand. Also, due to the fact it is superior in fructose agave has a reduced glycemic index, which suggests it does not trigger a significant spike in your blood sugar. Another fantastic point about agave is that it is not genetically modified, at least not however. Large fructose corn syrup, mainly because it comes from corn, is genetically modified. Sugar beets are now also genetically modified so most of the sugar you are taking in is genetically modified as properly.

The bottom line is agave nectar is not better for you than any other sweetener. And just like sugar, it will increase energy, enhance your drive for sweet foods, and support you gain bodyweight. It does not mean you need to hardly ever eat it, but don't kid yourself that it is by some means greater than other sweeteners. All types of sugar, including agave nectar, ought to be eaten in moderation. Probably the most effective option is to have fruit for dessert or to include fruit to other foods for sweetness. For instance, in place of introducing agave nectar to your oatmeal, consider introducing blueberries or strawberries instead. As soon as your palate adapts to the less sweet flavor of food items minus all the sugar, fruit will flavor a good deal sweeter.
