Yacon syrup comes from the roots of the South American Yacon plant. With only around 20 calories per spoonful, it's very low in sugar, with a taste similar to molasses or raisins. Yacon was used by the Incas and in Peru it's eaten for its nutritional properties and the fact it has few calories and low sugar levels. Yacon syrup contains around 30% to 50% of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), a natural sweetener which cannot be broken down easily by the human body. It passes through the digestive tract unmetabolised.
Yacon offers a new and exciting way to help
manage your weight. Taking it before meals will help to keep blood sugar
levels steady, feed the good bacteria in the colon and supply high
quality soluble fiber for healthy digestion. Yacon can be used as a
healthy natural sweetener which won't translate to extra pounds on the
scales.
The latest studies have proven that Yacon syrup can supress hunger pangs, which lowers calorie intake and can boost metabolism for quick burning of calories, initiating a faster reduction in weight.
30% to 50% of Yacon syrup is fructooligosaccharides (FOS), a natural sweetener which the body cannot break down, so it passes through the digestive tract. FOS also contains fiber and both the Yacon root and leaves contain high levels of polyphenols, a powerful antioxidant that can help to prevent illness and ward off diseases such as heart disease.
