Agave Inulin Powder - Organic
About Product
Agave inulin powder is derived from the agave plant, which is native to the southern and western regions of the United States, Mexico, and South America.
Native Americans have used this plant for centuries due to its highly nourishing properties. Agave has recently been used as an alternative sweetener due to its low glycemic index and low-calorie content.
Agave inulin powder is prevalent in many foods and beverages, including energy bars and smoothies.
Natural Food believes the combination of tradition and science is a match made in heaven. These are the principle fundamentals we use when searching far and wide for the highly nourishing traditional foods used for thousands of years to create and provide customers with a product that allows for optimal versatility and limitless applications.
