Maple Syrup: The Superior Tasting Sweetener that Loves you Back!

Maple syrup is known as the world’s best tasting sweetener with the most complex and rich flavor profile! However, did you know that this delicious sweetener carries some amazing health benefits as well? Maple syrup is a nutritional powerhouse, containing easily digestible sugars, along with high levels of potassium, zinc, calcium, manganese, and anti-inflammatory compounds. Maple syrup is also known for its complex flavor and top notes much like fine wine. We love to add it to coffee, cocktails, and let’s not forget it is the main ingredient in the famous Master Cleanse!

Maple syrup happens to be a great source of essential nutrients that are vital to maintaining good health. According to the USDA, just one tablespoon of maple syrup contains 52 milligrams of potassium – which is more than the same serving size of bananas! Additionally, maple syrup contains small amounts of minerals like calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc. These nutrients all play a role in maintaining proper body function, and most importantly helps the body assimilate sugar intake. In fact, a study conducted by researchers at the University of Rhode Island even found that maple syrup may be able to help improve insulin resistance, which is a common issue among individuals who struggle with diabetes. Unlike cane sugar which is void of these nutrients, maple syrup’s payload of vitamins and minerals helps your body better assimilate the sugar intake, therefore easing the insulin response. This is a huge discovery!

 Maple syrup has also been found to contain anti-inflammatory compounds. These compounds may help to ease pain and inflammation throughout the body, which could make it an excellent choice for individuals who suffer from inflammatory conditions like arthritis or IBS. One study even found that maple syrup contains antioxidant compounds that could help to protect against conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.

This is why the Hail Merry team is so dedicated to using maple syrup as a preferred sweetener in select products–and the benefits go beyond just the taste!
