Every Swiss consumes an unimaginable amount of 36 kilograms of sugar each year. It is also dangerous. In addition to the obvious sugar we put in our coffee or cake on purpose, the food industry hides so much in products that we don’t even suspect. Whether it’s instant sauce, bread or canned soup: sugar traps lurk everywhere.
Sugar is a flavor carrier and preservative. It makes food taste better and we eat more. In addition, sugar is an inexpensive filler that the industry likes to use in spreads, ready-made salads or desserts.
Too much sugar is unhealthy in the long run
We eat too much sugar, and it’s unhealthy in the long run. It leads to obesity, weakens the immune system and can also lead to diabetes or cardiovascular diseases as a long-term result.
Therefore, it is much more important to avoid sugar as much as possible. Get out of the sugar trap: There are many ways to do this. The trade now offers many natural sweeteners that put less stress on the body and still taste good.
Coconut blossom candy: the best of the palm tree
Coconut blossom candy is the big trend in the fitness kitchen. It helps prevent cravings. Here’s how it works: Coconut flower sugar causes blood sugar levels to rise more slowly than regular sugar. This prevents sugar splashes. Effect: the feeling of satiety lasts longer, severe hunger stays away. This is also a health benefit for diabetics.
Coconut blossom sugar comes from the nectar of the coconut flower and is one of the most sustainable sugars in the world, as it is derived in a resource-conserving way. Inflorescences for production are cut above the palm tree. The flower juice that comes out is collected, boiled, dried and ground, the process will not hurt the palm.
The taste of coconut blossom candy is lightly caramel and sweet, similar to regular sugar.
xylitol
Xylitol is a sugar substitute that is very popular right now. Xylitol is found in many plants and is derived from plant fibers such as corn or bark. Commercial xylitol has the same sweetening power as table sugar and can be used in exactly the same way. The tooth-friendly sweetener is a smart, light alternative to traditional household sugar.
Agave syrup – golden syrup
The homeland of the agave plant is Central America, but it is also grown in Europe. The inner core of the plant is removed to obtain the golden syrup. Sweet sap flows out of the hole in the stem. Viscous syrup is made by straining and heating.
Its sweetening power is one quarter higher than household sugar. When it comes to calories, agave syrup is light: 100 grams of agave syrup contains about 300 calories, which is a quarter less than table sugar.
Thanks to its mild flavor, agave syrup is ideal for desserts and almost all baked goods. However, the runny consistency when baking cakes can affect the texture of the dough. However, when cooking or sweetening drinks, agave syrup is great.
