Stay Thirsty My Friends, New Natural Sweetener About To Charge Into The Bullring
dos equis the most interesting man in the world with brunette redhead


At the recent Dallas, Texas bullfight of the American Chemical Society, swanky matadora Mercedes G. Lopez trotted-out her newest masterpiece:

A naturally-derived sweetener that doesn’t raise blood-sugar. (sounds oxymoronic just like “powdered-alcohol”, right?)

Somehow this odd cousin of Tequila-granddaddy, Agave Syrup is able to sweeten foods without the effects that eventually make you fat.

 
What devilry is this, You say? -Really-really good-looking long-chain fructose strings called, “Fructans” that are allegedly indigestible, but still taste sweet in your Powdered-Alcohol mojito.

Sounds crazy, especially since Mercedes’ research implies Agavin-sweeteners don’t have the same problems as fructose-based products.

 
-And The Issue There was that they’d been previously thought a panacea for Diabetics because they didn’t raise blood-Glucose.

BUT what ended up happening is they DID raise Triglycerides, or fat-in-the-blood.
-So you’re just screwed a Different way, but the result is the same: No Free Lunch.

 
Well with the added potential-benefit that this sweetener also Raises Insulin and May Improve Gut-Flora, agavins could even provide a One-TwoThree-Punch, specifically for Diabetics.

 
-The $64,000 questions remain though: “How much do they raise insulin?”, “Do they also raise triglycerides?”, and to-a-lesser-extent “Do we still get the same blowback-effects on appetite & weightloss of most artificial sweeteners [Ie: They screw up your satiety, appetite and ultimately undermine weight-loss]?”


Here’s to hoping we all get another tasty and effective weapon in the battle for weight-loss, especially for one or even two segments of the population that could Really use it!
