About Monk fruit
Monk fruit, also known as luo han guo, is a small green melon native to southern China and northern Thailand, traditionally used in herbal medicine and cooking. The fruit is celebrated for its natural sweetness, derived from compounds called mogrosides, which are calorie-free and substantially sweeter than sugar. This makes monk fruit a popular sugar substitute in recipes and beverages, especially for those seeking low-calorie or low-carb options. Rich in antioxidants, it may provide health benefits such as reducing inflammation and supporting immune function. Unlike artificial sweeteners, monk fruit extract is minimally processed and free from chemical additives, offering a more natural alternative. While generally recognized as safe for consumption, some products may contain additives or fillers, so reading labels is crucial. Its neutral flavor profile makes monk fruit a versatile ingredient in many cuisines, particularly Asian dishes and modern wellness-oriented recipes.
