Here’s a sugar you can enjoy without worrying about your health. . . In fact, it’s a sweet nutrient!

Nature’s Sugar 35 (Coconut sugar) is made from the inflorescence extracts, gathered by indigenous Southern Philippine tribes, and processed by modern manufacturing techniques to ensure a high quality sweetener. Our sugar was harvested in an environment friendly manner, and processed the natural way, completely free of harmful chemicals and preservatives. Nature’s Sugar 35 is a nutritious sweetener that’s naturally rich in vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. It has a low glycemic index of 35 which makes it the most ideal, safe and natural sweetener that’s perfect for our health.

Carbohydrate sources like rice, bread, pasta, fruits, juices, and pastries are all converted into the simple sugar, glucose, which is the primary source of body energy. The speed of converting these carbohydrates into blood glucose is termed Glycemic Index (GI). High GI has the value of >70, Medium GI has the value of 56-69, and Low GI has < 55 value.

High GI foods pose greater health risk while food with a low GI are the ones highly recommended. Cane sugar (regular table sugar) has an average GI of 68 (Brand-Miller 2002) while coconut palm sugar – SUGAR 35 has a Glycemis Index (GI) of 35
(Trinidad FNRI-DOST).

Among the natural sweeteners having GI lower than 55, Coconut palm sugar – SUGAR 35 - is considered the best because it does not convert to glucose too fast nor will it increase the blood sugar level (BSL). It will even maintain the blood sugar at a safe level and prevent sudden drops (hypoglycaemia).

Regular use of Nature’s Sugar 35 (Cocosugar) will benefit most individuals who are suffering from Diabetes mellitus (Types 1 & 2), insulin resistance, hypoglycemia, cardiovascular conditions, obesity, allergy and low immunity.

High sugar and insulin level trigger inflammatory changes which is common to almost all diseases.

These changes clog-up the blood vessels, resulting in poor blood circulation. It may manifest as chest pain, dizziness, numbness, and cramping of extremities.

" Dr. Trinidad O. Trinidad, Scientist II of the Food and Nutrition and Research Institute - Department of Science and Technology and her research team in the same press conference said that Glycemic Index (or GI) is the glucose response of an individual from food relative to a standard glucose solution. Low GI food is good for proper control and management of diabetes mellitus and has been shown to lower total and LDL cholesterol. It is also good for weight maintenance therefore prevents overweight and obesity." - PCA - Coconut Media Service / PIA XI
