Monk Fruit Calorie Free Sweetener 50 Sachets

OverviewYes, you hear it right. Monk Fruit is the fruit of the plant Luo Han Guo or Siraitia Grosvenorii. It is an herbaceous perennial native to southern China and is a famous specialty in Guilin city, Guangxi Province of China. Monk fruit has a round shape and green colour with seeds inside, as seen in picture below. In 1987, China’s Ministry of Health enlisted monk fruit as an edible species and medicine. Traditionally, the fruit is used as a natural sweetener of foods and also as a household remedy for nourishing the lungs, treating sunstroke, dire thirst, constipation, sore throat, cough and cold. Monk Fruit contains natural sugars, mainly fructose and glucose. However, unlike in most fruits, the natural sugars in monk fruit aren’t responsible for its sweetness. Instead, it gets its intense sweetness from unique antioxidants called mogrosides. During processing, mogrosides are separated from the fresh-pressed juice. Therefore, Monk Fruit sweetener does not contain fructose or glucose. This Monk Fruit extract may be 100 – 250 times sweeter than sucrose. FDA has deemed Monk fruit “Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)” for everyone, including pregnant women and children.
