Hello
Few years ago there were debated if agave syrup was healthy or not. Some said it was even worse than regular syrup.
Is agave syrup ok or not?

    Are you a Lustig fan? If so agave is terrible due to the fructose content

    What?? Lustig fan??
    I´m just trying to cut down on sugars. Because I have been sick with cold for two weeks I wanted to make some tea with lemon and syrup. Only thing I have in the house is some agave syrup.
    Sorry I asked.

    It's all sugars. Whether you are using agave, corn syrup, regular sugar, or cane syrup. Each one is just a little different in its makeup.

    Personally, I LOVE agave and use it in my iced tea. MMM

    I think agave, like stevia if gotten in its natural form is good or at least better than when a company processes it.
