Health Secrets of Coconut Crystals
When the coconut tree is tapped, it produces a naturally sweet, nutrient-rich "sap" that exudes from the coconut blossoms. This sap is very low glycemic (GI of only 35), is an abundant source of minerals, 17 amino acids, vitamin C, broad-spectrum B vitamins, and has a nearly neutral pH.
Small batches ensure that our pure, low glycemic Coconut Crystals, made from this natural sap, is a raw, enzymatically alive product, low temperature evaporated to remove excess moisture and allow for crystallization. By contrast, most brown cane sugar is boiled at temps up to 221 degrees F. and is not a true brown sugar, because molasses is added back in after it has been refined into white sugar.
