Does Pure Maple Syrup Have Health Benefits?

Pure maple syrup is a delicious natural sweetener. While it’s no health food, going with pure maple syrup has some benefits over reaching for Mrs. Butterworth’s or other syrups that are full of corn syrup, artificial flavors, and coloring.

🍁 Pure maple syrup is sap from maple trees that’s been boiled until most of the water is gone - leaving a thick, rich syrup.

🍁 It’s a somewhat unexpected source of essential minerals including calcium, vitamin B2, copper, zinc, and potassium. A serving of two tablespoons will provide you with half of your recommended daily intake of manganese, which benefits bone health and your nervous system.

🍁 A polyphenol called quebecol (named after the world’s largest producer of maple syrup - Quebec) can be found in maple syrup. Polyphenols can help reduce inflammation and support immune functions.

🍁 Darker maple syrups supply more antioxidants than lighter varieties with counts reaching around 24 beneficial types.

🍁 A prebiotic called inulin can be found in maple syrup as well. This acts as food for good gut bacteria to help aid in digestion.

🍁 Pure maple syrup typically causes less gas, bloating, and indigestion than artificial sweeteners.

🍁 Keep in mind that pure maple syrup is still relatively high in calories at 110 for a two tablespoon serving, but if you’re going to top your pancakes in syrup you might as well get some vitamins and minerals while you’re at it!

I like to take care of my health, both physical and mental. To avoid deficiencies, I had to adopt a balanced diet and above all use a specific food supplement. It is on this article that I found the product that allowed me to relive and enjoy optimal well-being without health concerns.

    Amanda is a mother of three (10, 7, and 5) and has been married for 14 years.   My weight loss journey started July 17, 2008, one day after my daughter's first birthday.  Tipping the scales at 235 pounds at 5'3, being an over weight, over tired, out of shape role model no longer appealed to me and I knew it was time for a change.   Three pregnancies later, I had lost a total of 105 pounds.  I had run 2 marathons and dozens of half marathons.  Something was missing.  I was thin, but I wasn't fit.  I wasn't healthy.  I could feel it in my insides.  I was 136 pounds and a size 8.  Something didn't add up.   I got my certification in personal training, nutrition, weight management, and dove into supplementation and whole foods.  90 days later, I gained 10 pounds and lost two pants sizes (8 to a 4). 
     
    Continuing on this path, all of my clients wanted to know how I was doing it.  I always dreamed of creating a business that truly added value to people and improved their health.  My husband, Grant, and I decided it was time to take that leap.

    December 9, 2016, Simply Prepped Meals was born.  Based around the mission of providing whole food based nutrition to people's doorsteps, we set out to create a new idea that fast food didn't have to be expensive or bad for you.   Six months later, we built our permanent location in Cynthiana, IN.  Then, January 2, 2018, we entered into a partnership with the YMCA of Southern Indiana to continue spreading the word of meal prep and eating with purpose. 

    Amanda coaches individually as well as continues to drive their business.  Any questions about personal coaching can be directed to her at amanda@simplypreppedmeals.com
