Agave Nectar
Unflavored, or flavored as in AGASWEET
The juice from the pineapple-shaped core of the mature agave plant is 1.4 times sweeter than sugar. It has a low glycemic index rating, which means it absorbs slowly into the blood stream and won't cause a "sugar rush".Agave nectar retains its sweetening power in cooking and baking, and it will not crystallize. No refrigeration is necessary.
Please see my AGASWEET lense or my web site for full info.

Funny thing about all those agave nectar sweeteners I got -- hubby was using 2 of them, but switched to another brand of sweetener. So, I put them in the pantry. Next thing I see, they are back on the kitchen counter. Mars sighting! xoxoxo

I eat too much refined sugar and so do the kids today. You would be surprised at the number of high school kids that eat lunch at the snack machines rather than in the lunch room.
Very informative lens.

I also hear that all fruits, milk and corn are also natural sugars. Every sense I stopped eating sugar I have lost weight and have acted a little less calmer. I always look at the ingredients to see if the product has any augar in it. If it has a sugar in it then I do not eat it. But do not be confused when the read the label between sugar in the ingredients list and sugar in the nuitrition facts list.
