Here
are some of the many things found in coconut sugar that make it so great.

Electrolytes

Coconut
sugar contains potassium, magnesium, and sodium, which are all essential for
regulating your body’s water content as well as many heart, nerve, and muscle
functions. It has nearly 400 times more potassium than regular sugar.

A
low-glycemic index

Regular
table sugar has a glycemic index (GI) of 65, while coconut sugar has a GI of
35. This is much closer to the GI of the sugar that’s naturally found in
fruits, which is around 25.

Minerals

Coconut
sugar contains iron, zinc, and calcium, which can have many health benefits,
including stronger bones.

Nitrogen

Nitrogen
helps support the cardiovascular system and helps keep your heart healthy.

Vitamin
C

Vitamin
C is best known for helping support your immune system and keeping you from
getting sick, but it also supports healthy joints and skin.

Raw
antioxidants

Since
coconut sugar is just dehydrated coconut sap, it’s considered a raw food—this
means that it retains all the rich antioxidants found in the original source.
Antioxidants fight off the oxidation of cells in the body, which helps combat
aging.

Short-chain
fatty acids

Coconut
sugar contains healthy fats that are known to help prevent high cholesterol and
heart disease.

Inulin

Inulin
is a type of dietary fiber that helps keep your gut healthy, prevent colon
cancer, and balance your blood sugar.

Less
sucrose

While
standard table sugar is pure sucrose, coconut sugar only contains about 75 percent sucrose. The other 25 percent is
composed of nutrients, fiber, and other “good stuff.” So for the same amount of
sugar, you’re consuming less of the “bad stuff” and simultaneously increasing
your nutrient intake!

No
bone char

In
some instances, regular sugar is processed with bone char from animals in order
to produce its white color and fine consistency. However, coconut sugar is an
unprocessed product that comes straight from the coconut tree—so you never have
to worry about whether animals were harmed in the making of your sweet treats!

Coconut
sugar can replace regular table sugar in a 1:1 ratio,
which means it’s easy to make the transition. It is similar to brown sugar with
regard to consistency, though, so make sure you give it a little extra time to
melt or combine with other ingredients when you cook or bake with it.
