Yacon Root Extract Powder 8oz

Yacon Root looks like a sweet potato, but it has a completely different taste, texture, and nutrient profile. This tuber has a creamy white-yellow color and a uniquely refreshing taste that's similar to apple, watermelon, and celery combined. Unlike sweet potato, Yacon is often eaten raw and contains no starch.

Yacon Root contains fructans, including fructooligosaccharides and inulin, which are prebiotics. Fructans aren't digested in the small intestine but travel to the large intestine, where they can improve your gut microflora by acting as a food source for good bacteria. The prebiotics found in yacon is especially favorable to healthy bacteria like Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, two species you can also find in yogurt.

Yacon Root is shown to be hypoglycemic and may decrease insulin resistance and serum insulin. If you are living with diabetes, you might be able to use yacon syrup as a natural sweetener. Speak to your doctor about whether this dietary food source is right for you

Fermentation of fructooligosaccharides reduces pH levels in your large intestines. This change in pH levels helps your body absorb minerals like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus.

-HEALTHY & DELICIOUS - Yacon Root Powder is a great 100% organic low-calorie and low-glycemic sweetener that tastes great and helps keep blood sugar stable throughout the day. Yacon root also has a prebiotic effect, meaning it allows intestinal flora that favor colon and digestive health to flourish.

-A delicate sweet taste that contains inulin and fructooligosaccharides (FOS). FOS taste sweet but passes through the body undigested, which is exactly what we want to help promote healthy probiotics in the body. Therefore, yacon powder is an ideal food for diabetics and people that are overweight. Yacon root only contains about half the calories of an average sugar source.

-Perfect for Weight Loss - Thanks to the soluble fibers it reduces the appetite for the feeling of satiety and contains few calories. Can also be used as a weight-loss supplement to lower glucose levels at a dosage of 50 - 100 mgs daily supply.
Used most often to sweeten anything from smoothies, raw cookies and energy bars
