Here's why Organic Monk Fruit Extract is the best low-carb, low-calorie sugar substitute

With sugar being present in nearly every food item available, many Americans today end up eating more sugar than they realize. If you want to cut down on excess sugar, as well as carbs and calories, monk fruit extract provides an easy way to do so, without having to give up your sugar cravings. This natural sweetener contains high concentrations of antioxidant compounds known as mogrosides, which are estimated to be about 300 times as sweet as sugar. This means that you only need to use a small amount to achieve the same sweetness as regular table sugar. Plus, the mogrosides in monk fruit extract are not carbohydrates and they have almost zero caloric value.

A member of the Cucurbitaceae (gourd) family, the monk fruit (Siraitia grosvenorii) is a close relative of watermelons, cucumbers and pumpkins. Native to the mountains of southern China, the monk fruit plant produces small, green melons that are considered to be one of the sweetest fruits in existence, which is why Buddhist monks have cultivated and harvested these sweet-tasting melons for over 300 years.

Also known as “luo han guo,” the monk fruit was a staple in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and was often utilized as the main ingredient of cooling drinks and soothing teas. Today, monk fruit extract is widely known as a revolutionary natural sugar alternative that contains nearly zero carbohydrates and calories and is loaded with antioxidants. In fact, its natural sweetness is due to its high concentrations of antioxidant mogrosides, which are a type of saponin. Thanks to its natural abundance of mogrosides, it is estimated that monk fruit is about much sweeter than regular table sugar. Moreover, monk fruit extract contains plenty of vitamin C and other phytochemicals, such as kaempferol, flavonoids, polysaccharides, glycosides and cucurbitacins.

Monk fruit extract does not get its natural sweetness from natural sugars like most other fruits. Instead, this natural sweetness comes from its high levels of mogrosides -- powerful antioxidants with varying levels of sweetness. Since mogrosides are not carbohydrates, mogroside-rich monk fruit extract is metabolized differently by the body and has a negligible effect on blood sugar.
