  1. how important it is to really research your brands as Elana has done. If I am using agave I will be using the brand she recommends under indgredients. What she says about agave and her recommended brand supports what Dr. Mecola is saying in his article re how some of them are manufactured. My personal trainer recommended getting Dr. Mecola's daily newsletter and I have found it to be very good. This is link to article.

    Dr. Mercola also suggest using dextrose as a sweetener (since is is all glucose and does not contain fructose like agave and honey). Has anyone tried substituting dextrose for agave or know of the conversion between the two?
