Pure Maple Syrup, The Next Super Food From Canada?
If looking for the superior quality Maple Syrup then search for it in Canada! The ideal
climate of Canada makes the best weather conditions for harvesting maple syrups.
Did you know that Pure Maple Syrup has the same antioxidant compounds found in berries,
tomatoes, tea, red wine, whole wheat and flax seed?
Pure Maple Syrup can help delay or prevent diseases caused by free radicals, such as cancer
or diabetes. In addition, maple syrup features high levels of zinc and manganese, keeping
the heart healthy and boosting the immune system.
“Researchers from the University of Rhode Island (URI) have identified 54 compounds in
Maple Syrup from Canada, double the amount previously reported, and many with antioxidant
activity and potential health benefits. In laboratory studies, they acted as anti-cancer
and anti-inflammatory agents. Initial studies also suggest that maple compounds may inhibit
enzymes relevant in Type 2 diabetes management.”

DONT FORGET all the above vitamins, minerals and health benefits can only be found in
100% pure ORGANIC products and not from most of the maple syrup bottles we see on the
shelfs which are from high fructose corn syrup flavoured with an aromatic compound called
sotolon, which contains the scent of fenugreek, curry and burnt, caramelized sugar.
Every 40 gallons of sap make just 1 gallon of maple syrup. That’s why a real jug of syrup
is so expensive.
Maple syrup derived early in the season at the time of the spring is sweet and clear.
It takes about 20-30 gallons of boiled down sap to make one gallon of light amber colored
syrup, labeled as Grade A.
Late in the season, maple sap thins out and grows watery. Much more than 20-30 gallons of
sap must be boiled down to yield syrup of equal sweetness. Boiling down more sap to concentrate
the sweetness also concentrates the flavor and nutrients.
This late season syrup is darker, more maple flavored, and higher in minerals and nutritional
content than the Grade A syrup labeled as Grade B.
