Health Benefits of Maple Syrup

Picture
There is no substitute for maple syrup
When one reaches for the pancakes, be sure to use authentic maple syrup and not a cheap synthetic sugar copy to ensure optimum health. In fact, using maple syrup as a sweetener, as opposed to sugar, is much better for the body and should be the natural choice.

Maple syrup is available to harvest only two months of the year- usually in March and April, depending on the region - which accounts for the cost of a bottle. During this time, trees are tapped for the precious liquid. After harvesting the sap from the tree, it is taken indoors to become maple syrup. The sap is boiled and through this process the water evaporates and becomes syrup. Depending on what products are to be made with maple syrup, like fudge and toffee, the boiling will last longer.

Maple Syrup, produced by the sugar maple tree, is loaded with vitamins and antioxidants which are good for you. The minerals available are; calcium, zinc, magnesium, potassium and vitamin B. Polyphenols are in abundance in maple syrup, which provide antioxidants for the body, and makes this food an overwhelming healthy choice.

This super food can aid in preventing diseases such as; cancer, and heart disease and it boosts the immune system. Maple syrup contains manganese, which also aids the brain and nerve functions.

There are fewer calories (50) in maple syrup per teaspoon than other sweeteners and honey, so it makes it a sweet choice.

Best of all, kids love maple syrup. It’s not only fun eating it in its many varieties, but it’s also a joy heading to the sugar bush and watching how the maple syrup is tapped and processed. In mid spring in Canada it’s quite exhilarating walking through a forest filled with maple trees, and other mature trees, while enjoying the whole feel of what it’s like to be out in nature getting the most out of life.

The choice is up to you, but it’s fairly clear by replacing sugar with either maple syrup or honey, food will not only taste better, but improve your health for years to come.
