100% Pure RAW Yacon Syrup Product Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.


I don't like to use sugar too often so I am always interested in trying out various alternatives. I usually use honey or agave syrup but was sent a bottle of Yacon Syrup to try out review and I was totally for it. 


Product Details
  • 100% RAW Yacon Root
  • Tested in an FDA certified facility, organic, 
  • No added preservatives
  • Can help with weight management, fiber intake, promotes good bowel function
  • Lowers blood sugar, restores renal activity, prevents and controls hyperglycemia
  • Can help boost your metabolism
  • High in prebiotics and probiotics
  • High in antioxidants



My Thoughts on This Product

It's a very dark color--looks like really dark pancake syrup--and you can use it for this if you like. I kind of like it on my pancakes, to be honest. I use a teaspoon in my cup of tea and it was okay. It didn't taste too bad. I tried it by itself and it was okay. It does taste like something but I can't really explain what. I didn't like it too much in my coffee, especially not when I tried to add cream. It altered the taste a bit too much for my liking.




I like that it's a more natural sweetener and better for me than sugar, but I'll probably only use it in my tea or in something else that doesn't already have a strong flavor. 





I guess if YOU don't mind the root??? flavor, then, yes this is great for diabetics or anyone else looking for a sweetener alternative that's actually good for them. Maybe the taste just takes some getting used to. The way I see it, if I were diabetic or had some other health issue that required me to use way less sugar, then I'd just keep using it till I got used to the taste. And it's really not that the taste is gross or anything, it's just DIFFERENT from what I'm used to. You also don't have to use it in anything. You can take a couple of spoonfuls a day for the health benefits. It is high in antioxidants and probiotics, does not alter your glucose levels, restores renal activities, and boosts your metabolism, which outweighs the taste.

  It's low cal and NON-GMO, certified organic, there's no soy, it's Gluten-free, and has no preservatives, which is also good.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Choose the right CBD for your daily routine

Can I ask you a question? Have you heard of the endocannabinoid system? If you thought “no” — You are not alone. Most people have no idea it exists… Yet, your endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a neural network that exists throughout your body and in every organ! Appetite, sleep, immune response, mood and pain are all regulated by your ECS and can become imbalanced. In fact, if you are experiencing issues such as inflammation, tremors, stress, lack of appetite or even pain… Then, it’s very likely that your ECS system is imbalanced. And to put your ECS system back in balance, it is time for you to discover the power of cannabinoids. Today, I hope to make this easier for you… My friends over at Elixinol have an amazing product called 300 mg Cinnamint Hemp Oil Drops Tincture   and  900 mg CBD capsules  that contains full-spectrum, 100% organic hemp cannabinoid extract. And, for a limited time, you can get this product at 15% OFF....

8 Packing Hacks When Moving

Moving is almost rarely enjoyable. I mean, you have to pack up all your stuff just to unpack it again somewhere else? You eat off of paper plates with plastic utensils for your last week because you know your kitchen takes the most to pack. You shift boxes around for weeks while you try and continue living in your home. It’s just not fun. Certain things can make it more enjoyable or at least easier, however. For instance, if you have found a great apartment for rent center city or similar, then you might find that this takes the sting out somewhat. However, there will still be things you need to bear in mind to ensure that you can do it right. The fun comes on the other end when you get to unpack and decorate somewhere new!
