Description:
Organic Raw Yacon Powder (8 oz./227 g):
Yacon Powder is an ancient South American food; a delicious tuber that tastes more like a fruit than a root. Yacon has an outstanding reputation for being one of the healthiest alternative sweeteners available on the market due to its high concentration of inulin, low glycemic impact, and healthy naturally occurring prebiotics.
Yacon powder has a mildly sweet flavor and is known worldwide as a wonderful food for diabetics. Due to its unique carbohydrate composition, Yacon stores carbohydrates as fructooligosacharides (FOS), which makes it an ideal superfood for diabetics and those watching their sugar intake. Yacon contains inulin, an indigestible sugar, which means that although is has a sweet flavor, it contains fewer calories than would be expected.
Yacon is also beneficial in colon related problems and also acts as a prebiotic that balances the flora and flow in the intestines. It has also proved effective against parasites and fungus.
Suggested Uses:
Enjoy 1-3 tablespoons of pure and natural yacon powder in baked goods, as a mild sweetener, add to smoothies to add a sweeter flavor and a rich maltiness, or add to any food as an exotic alternative to other superfoods.
