Wholesome Sweeteners Premium Organic Agave is a natural sweetener extracted from the heart of the agave plant. Agave is a low glycemic index (GI) sweetener, so it is slowly absorbed into the body, preventing spikes in blood sugar. The sweet mild taste is perfect for sweetening beverages, baking, and as a multipurpose sweetener. Use Wholesome Sweeteners Premium Organic Agave wherever you would use table sugar.
