This organic agave powder is remarkable and difficult to locate in some instances. Raw Fusion is one of the few distributors of Real Raw Agave powder in the world. It is raw vegan, and chemical free. If this is a new product for you, buy the 2oz trial size and come back for the 16oz size..
Source and Processing
This is the only organic agave powder product in the world that meets Raw Fusion’s “Pure Food” standards. Beware of other Agave products labeled “Raw”. This is the only agave powder that we have found that has not been heated above 102ºF at some point between the farm and the bottle!
The powder is produced from 100% Organic Blue Tequilana Weber Agave.
Benefits
This agave has a low glycemic index and has a taste similar to sugar and cotton candy. It is an ideal gourmet sweetener that can assist those interested in weight loss and overall health concerns.
This pure agave is rich in inulin, which is not broken down by your digestive enzymes. Because the inulin is not broken down by normal digestion, it does not elevate blood sugar levels and may therefore be helpful in the management of diabetes. Inulin will aid in the absorption of calcium. There is solid evidence for inulin’s efficacy as a prebiotic to promote gut health.
We have used it in our Raw Fusion test kitchen to make incredible ice creams, sorbets and other sweet recipes resulting in gourmet food with low glycemic benefits. The powder is also highly soluble in even cold water, making it ideal for beverages and all your favorite recipes!
Agave, best known as the plant from which tequila is made, has also been used for thousands of years as an ingredient in food. The literal Spanish translation is "honey water." The Aztecs called agave a “gift from the gods” and the liquid flavors numerous foods and drinks, including tequila.
Doctors and health-conscious eaters favor this above all sweeteners.
