Agave… It’s Good 4 You

 Here is some information that I came across about Agave Nectar. I’ve found it 2 be a great alternative to using plain sugar (which is not very good 4 you). Check it out. -!YG

 Agave Nectar: In an effort to create a healthier diet, a growing number of consumers are looking to cut out highly processed and/or chemical-based sweeteners such as HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup) and Sweet ‘N Low. While honey is a popular natural alternative, we’ve also recently been hearing a lot about agave nectar. Harvested from the agave plant, the nectar (also sometimes called agave syrup) is slightly thinner than honey, about 1.5 times sweeter than sugar (meaning you don’t have to use as much), and has a low glycemic index, making it a good alternative for diabetics as well. Available in both light and dark varieties, the nectar’s color corresponds to its flavor intensity.
