    Description

    Yacon Syrup
    Smallanthus sonchifolius
    Low-Glycemic Sweetener
    The Yacon plant is native to the Andes Mountains. The Yacon root, which looks like a woody potato, tastes sweet with a fibrous texture. Inca messengers used to dig up and eat the root to fuel their long treks. Yacon syrup is sweet but its oligofructose (FOS) sugar is indigestible by humans. Its inulin fiber passes through the digestive tract intact, ultimately feeding healthy bacteria in the colon. As a functional food, Yacon syrup can be used in cooking or desserts without spiking blood sugar or consuming excessive calories.
