I use agave and stevia almost exclusively although not excessively. I just had my yearly bloodwork drawn and my blood sugar, cholesterol, and triglycerides all came back WELL within normal ranges. </p> <p>I hope this post doesn't come across as me wanting to start a fight. There's a lot of us out there trying to make the best choices we can based on available information. I think it's wise to remember that any sweeteners should be used in moderation, whatever one's individual choice may be. </p> http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/topic/new-article-on-agave-nectar#post-242 Thu, 23 Apr 2009 06:37:59 +0000 lareekline 242@http://www.elanaspantry.com/forums/ <p>Here is a link to another great article on agave nectar.</p> <p><a href="http://www.westonaprice.org/modernfood/HFCSAgave.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.westonaprice.org/modernfood/HFCSAgave.pdf</a> </p>
