Description
Agave is a plant rich in properties and benefits, used as a medicinal plant since ancient times in the area ofAncient Mexico andNorth America. Its active ingredients are most concentrated in the leaves or flower, and it is used as a purgative or as a laxative.
The plant contains a very important substance called Inulin, which is a carbohydrate with the abilities to lower cholesterol, of support the immune system and to keep diabetes under control thanks to its low glycemic index. In addition, the presence of mineral salts and trace elements make the plant a restorative, particularly of iron, calcium and magnesium.
A particular processing of certain species of the genus Agave (Agave Americana, Agave Tequilana or Blue and Agave Salmiana), which takes place mainly in Mexico, allows the extraction of Agave Juice which is then processedinto Agave Syrup.
This Agave syrup is presented with a color clear tending to transparent, with a sweet taste and a viscous consistency and is used as a soluble natural sweetener due to its lower glycemic index than that of sugar or honey.
