Reduce Your Sugar with Monk Fruit

11 January

Sugar is almost unavoidable in our modern society, but it has a huge impact on our health. That’s why many look for sugar alternatives. However, many zero-calorie and artificial sweeteners aren’t any better than sugar itself. Monk fruit extract is an alternative sweetener. It’s low in calories and may be a good choice for those avoiding sugar and artificial sweeteners (in moderation, of course.)

Coconut Palm Sugar

13 November

The coconut takeover continues! Over the past couple years, many of us have replaced our oil, our milk, and now our sugar. The wonders of coconut continue to impress. This month, coconut palm sugar is taking (and baking) the cake!

Coconut palm sugar is pure dried sap from the blossoms of the coconut tree. It’s certified vegan, fairly traded, organic and boasts verification on the low glycemic index, making it ideal in moderation for those monitoring their blood sugar.
