About Monkfruit
Monk fruit, also known as Luo Han Guo, is a small green melon native to southern China and Thailand. Revered in traditional Chinese medicine, it has been used for centuries as a natural sweetener and therapeutic remedy. The fruit's sweetness comes from mogrosides, natural compounds that are calorie-free and exponentially sweeter than sugar. This makes monk fruit extract a popular alternative for those seeking to reduce sugar intake without artificial sweeteners. It has no carbohydrates, fats, or proteins, and does not raise blood sugar levels, making it a diabetic-friendly option. Monk fruit is often used in beverages, desserts, and baked goods as a sugar substitute. However, commercially available monk fruit sweeteners may include other ingredients, so it’s important to check labels. While it is generally safe and well-tolerated, some people may find highly concentrated sweetness less appealing in certain recipes.
