Peak Supps Organic Coconut Sugar is made from the sap harvested from coconut trees. Used as a popular alternative to other sugars in South Asian regions, coconut sugar is used for various recipes in baking, cooking, decoration and for teas, coffees or other drinks.
Coconut sugar resembles brown sugar but gives an extra kick with a mild taste of butterscotch / caramel. For cooking, coconut sugar offers a very low melting temperature but also has a high burning temperature. It can be used in making icing to decorate your creations.
Coconut sugar has a low Glycemic Index (GI) rating of 35, due to this it is released into the body slowly which gradually raises blood sugar levels. Compared to regular table sugar which has a GI rating of 65. Coconut sugar is a healthier alternative as table sugar is released more quickly which gives a spike of blood sugar levels instead.
Peak Supps Organic Coconut Sugar is suitable for those looking for a high-quality natural alternative for sugar to add to their diet. They are suitable for the general public and athletes.
If you’re currently taking medication, we would recommend checking with a doctor or medical professional before adding this to your diet.
