Agave Nectar
Many manufacturers often market agave nectar as a healthy sweetener. Nevertheless, it is extremely rich in fructose and highly refined. Consuming too much fructose from added sweeteners would be really bad for overall health. In fact, it is estimated that agave nectar can even contain more fructose contents than many other sweeteners available on the market. More specifically, agave nectar contains up to 85 percent fructose, while the numbers in high-fructose corn syrup and table sugar are only 55 percent and 50 percent, respectively. Erythritol and stevia are calorie-free, natural, and healthy alternatives that you should choose. [10]
