Yacon Syrup is essentially an FOS (Fructo-Oligo Saccharide) type sugar, meaning it cannot be absorbed by the body as sugar. Instead, it has a very low glycemic index which prevents blood sugar spikes normally associated with other sugars such as maple syrup, honey, or agave. Raw, organic Yacon Syrup is still an excellent sweetener for use in foods because it passes through the digestive tract unmetabolized, providing very few calories.
Strong prebiotic and probiotic properties. Yacon Syrup is easily digested by “good” bacteria in the small intestines and the colon. Clinical studies have shown this to increase the number of healthy digestive bacteria in the colon while simultaneously reducing the population of harmful bacteria. In addition to its metabolism boosting effects, Yacon Syrup is therefore often used as a colon cleansing aid for weight loss as well.
Reduces constipation and improves absorption of magnesium, calcium, and vitamins. Yacon Syrup may also help to control cholesterol, fat metabolism, and triglycerides. Yacon Syrup is ideal for people on low-calorie / low-glycemic index diets. As an antioxidant, the syrup is potent enough to boost the immune system similar to the effects of other superfoods such as Aloe Vera.
Certified Organic, Raw Yacon Syrup – fresh pressed from Yacon root, with extraordinary properties as a natural weight loss aid and sweetener. Widely used in the Andes and Peru, Yacon Syrup has been used for centuries to provide cleansing of the digestive system, and strengthening of the immune system. Featured by Dr. Oz and other experts and praised for its ability to increase metabolism and regulate blood sugar levels, making Yacon Syrup an excellent choice for dieting. Manufactured in USA for Washington LaboratoriesTM using USDA Certified Organic raw product. This product is 100% natural, vegan-friendly, contains NO pesticides, NO additives, NO coloring, and NO preservatives.

This is THE Yacon brand to get my friends!
By Alisha Allen on January 2, 2014
Due to some health discoveries I have had to cut all sugar out of my diet. Truth? I knew it would never be possible. Never but over the last 7 1/2 months this syrup has EASILY allowed me to do this. It’s much easier to change the diet of my families as well as I do not have the time in making different meals and baked goods for everyone and to date, no one has complained. Everyone really has supported me and even enjoys the syrup. Now I notice my children grabbing this to add on top of their oat meal or yogurt themselves and no one has even asked for me to buy more maple syrup at the store for their waffles etc. I feel so much better knowing that we are all on so much healthier of a path and it can clearly be seen and felt by my entire family. This yacon syrup made by Washington Laboratories is my absolute favorite, and trust me I have tried several brands on here. I’m not sure why some people are fussing over this product. The bottles I have bought of this look perfectly normal, seals are tight, and it tastes delicious!

Very glad to see this on Amazon! The perfect sweetener for almost anything.

I have been using yacon syrup for quite some time. My only complaint is that my local shops due not carry this so I always need to buy it online. But now that it’s available on Amazon at a reduced price, you just can’t beat it. I love the quality of this brand and the taste is amazing. Here’s a tip – try adding this to your smoothies, oat meal, or morning yogurt. Healthiest ‘sweet’ breakfast you’ll ever have! I really enjoy the flavor and find it to fit into my daily diet very easily. This can even be a great topping on ice cream. This is also the best price I’ve found so far, being a more spendy of a product – I must admit, I am very happy about that.

A good choice if you eat vegan
By Delmy Carder on January 10, 2014

It appears that not all yacon syrup products (especially the capsule kinds and also certain bottled ones) are 100% vegan. I discovered this after doing some due dilligence on brands and ingredients. This one by Washington Laboratories is vegan though and is also why I settled on this brand. Tastes ok I think, not amazing or anything but definitely not bad. I keep mine in the pantry or cupboard even though I guess youre supposed to keep it in the fridge. Havent had a bottle go bad yet but then again I go through them fairly quick.

Take this any day over Agave nectar
By Brianna Swift on January 10, 2014

If your familiar with agave nectar you will know that its a similar, syrupy type sweetener that comes in a bottle. Both the agave and the yacon are really low on the glycemic index scale but for me I’m very picky about taste and I cant really stomach the agave syrup. Went with this as test to see what it tastes like and I am hooked!

The Dr Oz study was right on the money
By Jean Broderick on January 9, 2014
Amazon Verified Purchase
Looks like most people heard about this product on Dr Oz, me included. I can’t remember the study results exactly but I do know it was said that significant weight loss had been documented in most of the women who had tried it. Add me to that list, as I am now down 2 sizes since I began taking this yacon syrup in early december. Will keep going to see how I can look for summer..

Gets little thick when cold but otherwise excellent!
By Diana L. Kim on January 7, 2014

Excellent quality product. Just a word of advice, if you stick this in the fridge you might want to let it sit in room temp for 15 mins before pouring it out as it gets a little thick. Texture and flavor seems great to me. Using it on everything from pancakes to milkshakes.

One of the first Yacons on the market and still probably the best
By Dayle Veliz on January 8, 2014

To those who think is costs too much, maybe you should shop around a little and compare what you get. Believe me I have tried some of those other “me too” yacon bottles but none of them live up to the quality of Washington Laboratories. Well perhaps with the exception of Vida Supps here on Amazon, and a brand called Greeniologics I found here locally. I am more than pleased with this and bought it mainly for regulating my blood sugar. Seeings how it could help me lose some excess weight too that would be a great icing on the cake.

The first food supplement to actually take the pounds off my body!
By Jennifer Peg on January 7, 2014
I’ve been there and done that when it comes to diets and pills over the past 10 years. Up into my early twenties I never gained weight, but after I had my two daughters at 27, I saw the pounds starting to come on. Most women who have had babies can relate to this. Pregnancies really wreck havoc with your system, and my metabolism was just never the same. I just turned 37 this october and after I saw the scale reach 217 lbs one morning, I decided it was time to make a stand. My husband is very supportive thankfully. He did a lot of research and suggested I try Yacon syrup. I got a bottle of this from another website in late November and just wanted to come her and write a review – because this my fellow girlfriends – has been the KEY to my (so far) promising success. After taking this particular brand (Washington Laboratories) of yacon syrup, I can proudly say I am down 13 pounds already. Yes, the syrup takes sort of like molasses but I find it is best when I mix it in with oatmeal and then later in the day along with some yogurt or fruit. Thanks for a wonderful product, and no I do not think this is overpriced. You get what you pay for and this stuff is amazing!
