Monk fruit is a small green melon native to China and Thailand. Used for centuries in traditional medicine, it’s also zero-calorie sweetener. Its sweetness comes from mogrosides, which are much sweeter than sugar but don’t raise blood sugar levels.

Who discovered monk fruit?

Buddhist monks, have cultivated monk fruit for centuries, calling it "The Immortals Fruit" for its health benefits. Used to sweeten teas and elixirs, it was believed to boost energy and longevity. The FDA approved it as a sweetener in 2010.

What are the benefits of monk fruit?

Monk fruit sweetener is calorie-free, doesn’t raise blood sugar, and suits diabetics and low-carb diets. Its mogrosides are antioxidants that may reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. It supports gut health and may aid weight management.

Allulose is a rare sugar found in foods like figs, raisins, and maple syrup. It tastes like sugar, browns and caramelizes like it too, but has minimal calories and doesn’t raise blood sugar. Also known as D-psicose or pseudo-fructose.

What are the benefits of allulose?

Found in figs and maple syrup, allulose is a “nature-identical” sugar that doesn’t cause cavities or weight gain. It bakes, browns, and tastes like sugar—and may even support fat loss and metabolic health, according to some studies.
