Sugar: go for quality, not quantity

The American Heart Association has urged people to cut the amount of added sugar in their diet.
Surprisingly perhaps for a sugar product company, we agree. In fact, it is the excess consumption of white sugar which prompted our scientists to develop a healthier sugar in the first place.

Associate Provost and Professor of Nutrition at the University of Vermont Rachel Johnson points out that “sugar has no nutritional value other than to provide calories. Consuming foods and beverages with excessive amounts of added sugars displaces more nutritious and beverages for many people.”

This is true for white sugar, however LoGiCane is not a hollow nutrient. The following table compares LoGiCane low GI sugar with white sugar:

About 4 years ago, Horizon Science discovered that an enormous amount of valuable phytochemicals (antioxidants) were being discarded during the sugar refining process.

We identified molasses as being a rich source of antioxidant polyphenols (a type of phytochemical). Further research lead us to develop a method of naturally extracting the identified antioxidant polyphenols from the molasses and retain them in just the right amount to consistently produce a low GI sugar.

So not only is LoGiCane certified as low GI, it also is a source of some valuable nutrients usually discarded during the sugar refining process.

LoGiCane is a natural, wholesome product made from sugarcane. LoGiCane retains more of the natural polyphenols, organic acids and minerals from sugarcane. It contains no chemical additives and has not been genetically modified. LoGiCane can be fully substituted for regular white sugar.
