Product Review - Life & Food 100% Pure Raw, All Natural Yacon Syrup


Generally, you're supposed to poop shortly after you eat.  When you eat three meals a day, you're expected to have three poops a day... at least.  Well, of course, I don't always poop three times a day.  I poop every morning and only sometimes do I poop again during the day.
Well, I was asked to review an all-natural product called Yacon syrup by Life & Food.  Per the website, it is to assist in weight management, increase fiber intake, and promote good bowel function.  Other benefits are noted as lowering blood sugar, preventing/controlling hyperglycemia, and restoring renal activity.  It is noted to be a powerful antioxidant, high in both pre- and probiotics.  Lastly, it is noted to be 100% pure raw organic syrup from the fields of Peru.

So, likely you are wondering how it tastes.  It had a smoky like taste and some reviews compared it to tasting like molasses.  I can't recall tasting molasses to compare the two.  I definitely would say that it is an acquired tasty.  It wasn't as tasty as eating raw honey; however, it wasn't like it was disgusting.  I did chase it at times, just because it is thick and leaves a bit of a taste in your mouth.  It is sweet, but not overly sweet.

I did add it to my vegetable smoothies, just to add a bit of sweetness to them.  I also tried it drizzled on some bananas.  It wasn't bad at all.

Not much is needed for the product to do as it's designed to do.  I definitely noticed an increase in my bowel movements, my weight was maintained (not something that I am happy about), and given the increase in my bowel movements, I guess you can say that the fiber intake was increased.

Overall, I had no problem with the syrup and plan to finish what I have left.  As for purchasing it in the future, I would consider it, especially if there is a sale and free shipping (I'm frugal, I admit).  It definitely served it's purpose and I am pleased with that.  If interested in purchasing, click here.
