Anybody tried using Coconut Sugar? It is a better and healthier alternative to table sugar. Has low Glycemic index of 35 perfect for Diabetics. Coconut sugar a by product of coconut is an all natural whole food that is also rich in essential Amino acids, Vitamins and Minerals that helps in the metabolic process, prevention of disease and promotion of good health.
With all it’s health benefits, still very few are using it, why because it’s so expensive, P350 to P400 per kilo. Wow that’s already equivalent to 4 kilos of cane sugar.

No, I have not used coconut sugar. In fact, I have to keep away from any thing of coconut. If I take coconut, juice, fruit flesh, or any thing of coconut, my blood pressure rises. I get dizzy within minutes. I am very sensitive to coconut. So, I have to be very careful with coconut products. Thank you for the information !

Actually I have used coconut sweetener and I am not sure if it's the same with coconut sugar, probably the same :). Anyway, yup it does taste good and totally healthier compared to other sweeteners. However, I haven't use it again since I am quite busy with other things and haven't actually needed any sweetener lately. Nevertheless in spite of the price, I really recommend it since it is really healthy. Always remember health is wealth. :)
Have a nice day!
