The Benefits Of Coconut Sugar
A Healthier Alternative To Sugar
The excessive consumption of refined sugars has been linked to various health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Are there any healthy alternatives to sugar?
Kroma Wellness is here to introduce you to the goodness of natural sweeteners, with a special focus on coconut sugar as a healthy and delectable alternative.
1. Nature's Sweet Bounty
Nature has gifted us with a plethora of sweeteners that are less processed and packed with essential nutrients. One such gem is coconut sugar, which is derived from the nectar of coconut blossoms.
Unlike refined sugar, it undergoes minimal processing and retains vital minerals like potassium, zinc, and iron. This natural sweetener adds a delightful, caramel-like flavor to your dishes and desserts without the notorious sugar crash.
Kroma's OMG Cookie Butter combines coconut palm sugar with nuts, seeds, goji berries and Chocho plant protein to energize and satiate your mind and body.
2. Glycemic Index and Steady Energy
The glycemic index (GI) measures how quickly a food raises blood sugar levels. Coconut sugar boasts a lower GI compared to white sugar, meaning it causes a slower and steadier rise in blood glucose. This translates to sustained energy levels and fewer spikes and crashes, making it an excellent choice for those with diabetes and those watching their sugar intake.
3. Nutrient Density
Coconut sugar is not just a sweetener; it's a nutrient powerhouse. It’s rich in amino acids, potassium, and antioxidants, and it supports your overall well-being while satisfying your sweet tooth.
Kroma's delicious, easy-to-digest Vanilla Cinnamon Plant-based Protein includes coconut sugar, Chocho plant protein, vanilla and cinnamon for 9/9 essential amino acids and digestion-promoting enzymes.
4. No Refined, No Regret
Unlike the highly processed, refined sugars in most foods, coconut sugar is a natural alternative that avoids the harmful chemicals used in sugar production: no bleach, no additives, just pure, natural sweetness.
5. Flavorful Versatility
One of the reasons coconut sugar is gaining popularity is its versatility in culinary applications. Use it as a 1:1 substitute for granulated sugar in your recipes, and you'll notice a delightful hint of caramel flavor that enhances the taste of your dishes. From baked goods to savory dishes and beverages, it seamlessly blends into a variety of culinary creations.

Bonus: Maple Sugar
Let’s talk about another sweet natural sweetener. Maple sugar is derived from the sap of the sugar maple tree and has a lower glycemic index compared to refined sugar. Additionally, a tablespoon of pure maple syrup, which is closely related to maple sugar, contains essential minerals such as magnesium, zinc, manganese, calcium, potassium, and iron. It also offers certain health benefits like supporting healthy digestion due to its inulin content, a dietary fiber linked to a healthy digestive system and microbiome. Other potential benefits include a healthier heart, immune system, and antioxidant properties that help protect the body from free radicals.
Kroma’s Change Your Life Chai Latte includes maple sugar as one of its ingredients. It combines the calming spices of a chai latte with other beneficial ingredients like turmeric, cordyceps, and reishi mushrooms. Maple sugar not only sweetens the beverage naturally but imbues it with bodily benefits as well.
If you want a caffeine-free warming drink, Kroma's Spicy Passion Latte is the perfect combination of maple sugar, cacao, pumpkin pie spice and cayenne pepper with sexy superfoods to help boost your libido and energize your body.
