For the longest time, since 2007, I am also using Agave Syrup with a Glycemic Index of only 15, compared to refined sugar that has a GI of 80. That does make a huge difference for the body.
At Costco Wholesale we always buy these twin-bottles of Agave Syrup.
Agave with a Glycemic Index: 15 just click on the link.
A Low-Glycemic sweetener bursting with flavor
For 7 years this fall, I have been eating sweeteners with a low Glycemic Index!
Very happy with a blood sugar level that has been in check.
Are you cutting down on your sugar intake as well?

Good Morning Mariette, My daughter, Natasha, introduced me to agave syrup and I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. I now use it drizzled over Greek yoghurt instead of honey. I have not excluded all sugar from my diet, but I am getting much better.... this is a step in the right direction.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day today.
Best Wishes
Daphne
Ik had er nog nooit van gehoord-zal me er meer gaan in verdiepen .. Fijne dag ,Joan
ReplyDeleteHello Mariette.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your words and your visit! Very important.
This entry where we give inf. this syrup, I find it useful. So I will read other entries on this topic, diabetes etc. Surely I will be very useful. Really thanks! Hugs!
I've been using coconut sugar for my coffee for a while but have been thinking about trying agave syrup as well. Thank you for always sharing healthy food with us :-)
ReplyDeleteThe only time I ever use sugar is if I am baking something and then I do use an alternative such as coconut or date sugar or maple syrup. Haven't used agave in a while. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteTelling us about health is fantastic. Agave has a lot of properties. Have no use agave in syrup, but I´ll try it.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs Mariette.

Goed om dit te gebruiken voor diabetici. Gelukkig dat je dat gevonden hebt als vervanging voor suiker.
ReplyDeleteLiebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteAgaven-Sirup gibts auch bei uns. Ebenso wie Ahornsirup. Ich vermisse einen Home-Button in Deinem Blog. Auch wenn ich auf Deinen Header klicke, gelange ich nicht mehr zur Startsite. Oder habe ich etwas übersehen?
Viele liebe Grüße
Sara
liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteich gestehe, ich hab von Agaven-Sirup noch nie gehört - schön, wenn man
ganz natürlich den Blutzuckerspiegel senken kann - schmeckt er?
liebe Grüße - Ruth
We are very careful about our sugar intake lately, but Agave syrup looks very interesting! I will try to find it!
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Mariette!!!!
I wish you a lovely new week! We have had heavy rain since yesterday all over Greece!!!!
Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteI have not tried Agave syrup yet, although I have cut down on my sugar and only have the occasional treat these days. Diabetes runs in my family, so I am always very careful. I am excited to learn about this and will buy some next time I go shopping! Thank you for sharing this information with us. Hope you are having a lovely week and last days of summer.
A hug for you
