Organic Yacon Syrup

Description

Superfoodies’ Organic Yacon Syrup offers an ideal alternative as a natural sugar replacement for use in smoothies, raw snacks, baking, cereals and desserts. This naturally sweet-tasting Peruvian superfood is known for being low-calorie, low-carb, low-glycemic, keto-friendly and prebiotic. This is due to the presence of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), complex sugars that are not easily digested, attributing for its sweet flavour whilst having a minimal impact on blood sugar levels and calorie count. Yacon Syrup can be used as an aid to digestive health, gut microbial balance, healthy weight management and blood sugar management. This natural sweetener is ideal as a substitute for sugar syrups, honey or maple syrup. Yacon syrup is made from the reduced juice of the organically grown root, resulting in a syrup with a light fruity flavour.

According to David Wolfe in his book “Superfood: The Food and Medicine of the Future” ‘as a prebiotic, yacon is good for digestion, stimulates positive colon health and helps with the absorption of calcium, magnesium and B vitamins. Yacon helps to regulate friendly intestinal flora.’ In addition Organic Yacon Powder is a good source of potassium, calcium, phosphorous and iron.
