Ingredient notes

What to know about agave nectar

Agave nectar is marketed as a healthy low-GI sweetener, but it is one of the most concentrated sources of excess fructose you can buy, often 70 to 90 percent fructose. That is exactly what people with fructose malabsorption cannot absorb, so agave is a common hidden trigger for bloating, gas and loose stools even though it barely moves blood sugar.

Watch for

  • Very high in excess fructose, the single FODMAP behind fructose malabsorption, so a small drizzle can cause bloating, wind and diarrhoea
  • The low glycaemic index that makes it look healthy comes from the same free fructose that upsets a sensitive gut, so the health halo is misleading
  • A poor choice for SIBO and generally pro-inflammatory as an added sugar, despite the natural label
