Zero Glycemic Index
Understanding why MonkSugar has absolutely no impact on your blood sugar levels
What is Glycemic Index?
The Glycemic Index (GI) is a ranking system that measures how quickly carbohydrate-containing foods raise blood glucose levels. Foods are ranked on a scale of 0 to 100, with pure glucose assigned a value of 100.
High GI (70+)
White bread, sugary drinks, white rice
Medium GI (56-69)
Brown rice, honey, orange juice
Low GI (0-55)
Most vegetables, nuts, legumes
MonkSugar: GI = 0
MonkSugar has a glycemic index of absolute zero. This means it causes no spike in blood sugar levels whatsoever. This is possible because of our unique formulation:
Monk fruit sweetener contains mogrosides which are not metabolized as carbohydrates
Allulose is absorbed by the body but not metabolized, and is excreted unchanged
Neither ingredient raises blood glucose or insulin levels
Safe for diabetics and those following keto or low-carb diets
Why Zero GI Matters
For Diabetics
Managing blood sugar is crucial. MonkSugar lets you enjoy sweetness without the glucose spike that regular sugar causes.
Stable Energy
High GI foods cause energy crashes. Zero GI means sustained energy throughout the day without the ups and downs.
Weight Management
Blood sugar spikes trigger insulin release, which promotes fat storage. Zero GI supports your weight management goals.
Long-term Health
Consistently high blood sugar is linked to chronic diseases. Switching to zero GI sweeteners is a smart preventive choice.
