Yacon Syrup #Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Do you or someone you know suffer from Diabetes? Yacon Syrup is a sweetener that is extracted from yacon roots. Yacon roots are a root vegetable or tuber grown in the Andes of Peru. The roots contains Fructooligosacharides (FOS), a special type of healthy sugar that

is not digested by the body so it does not elevate blood glucose levels. Since it has very few calories and low sugar levels Yacon Syrup is suitable for diabetics, for people who are dieting, and for those who suffer from candida overgrowth.  FOS is also a prebiotic that helps to establish a healthy bacterial probiotic environment in the belly. I have hypoglycemia so I try to avoid eating a lot of sugar so I was more than happy to receive a bottle of Life Food Pro Yacon Syrup to try. 

The consistency is thick like molasses and tastes slightly sweet. You can use the syrup as a dietary supplement, or as you would use any sweetener such as in tea or coffee, or in your baked goods and on pancakes. It dissolves a lot easier in hot drinks, I tried the Yacon Syrup in iced tea and it was just like using honey where I have to stir it a bit to get it to dissolve. I do find Yacon Syrup to have a pleasurable taste and plan to continue using it.

Here are some more of Yacon's health benefits:

• Contains fiber to help prevent constipation 
• Improves calcium absorption 
• Reduces cholesterol levels 
• Strengthens the immune system 
• Contains polyphenols that can help in the prevention of cancer and heart disease
• reduces cancerous lesions in the colon

Yacon syrup is made in the USA, non-GMO, soy free, and gluten free.
