‘JoyMix’ Organic Coconut Sugar 300g

‘JoyMix’ Organic Coconut Sugar is a healthy sugar alternative to the white refined sugar that we consume on a daily basis in many ways. Coconut sugar (also known as coco sugar,coconut palm sugar, coco sap sugar or coconut blossom sugar) is a sugar produced from the sap of cut flower buds of the coconut palm that is processed to form a syrup. Then it is evaporated to form granular sugar. Coconut sugar has been used as a traditional sweetener for thousands of years in the South and South-East Asian regions.

Coconut sugar is caramel coloured and the taste is different from palm sugar . It taste like a combination of cane sugar and molasses.  The taste is similar to brown sugar as well.

Only young coconut trees are used to make coconut sugar. Therefore it contains natural vitamin C and fiber.

Benefits of ‘JoyMix’ Organic Coconut Sugar:

Lower Glycemic Index Sugar

Lower Glycemic Index (GI) – GI is a measurement on how fast the food raises the blood glucose level. Food with high glycemic index causes blood sugar to rise quickly. This can lead to a sugar rush and subsequent crash. Fast rise in blood sugar levels can also cause your insulin levels to soar in a short period of time, and this can cause serious consequences especially for diabetic patients.

Thus, coconut sugar has a low glycemic index. Based on the table above, coconut sugar’s glycemic index is only 35 compared to glucose and white sugar which have a much higher glycemic index. Therefore, coconut sugar causes a slower increase in blood glucose level and insulin will not increase rapidly in a short period of time.

Less Fructose

Coconut Sugar has very low fructose content.

Fructose is a type of sugar that can be easily converted into fat in your body. Fructose can only be broken down in the body by the liver, and one of the results of this breakdown is triglyceride — a form of fat. You shouldn’t consume large amounts of fructose outside because we can get it in fresh fruits.

However based on the table above, coconut sugar has the lowest fructose content because coconut sugar has 70-79% of sucrose which is only 3-5% each of fructose and glucose. This is a good news for everyone as we can consume sugar which contains less fructose and glucose level would not spike up especially for diabetic patient. Coconut sugar is the solution for diabetics.

Note: Everything that a diabetic consumes need to be in moderation. So, coconut sugar is an alternative to refined white sugar but consume it moderately.
