   Cookies sweetened with fruit juices (sometimes called “Frookies” because fruit sugar is Fructose) are BETTER for the diabetic, but they STILL must be used in moderation.

   Eat one or two a day — not the whole box!

   Agave nectar is mostly (more than 90%) fructose (fruit sugar). This type of sugar is not as quickly absorbed into the body as sucrose (table sugar). It is still, however, fully digestable.
   For the above reason, it doesn’t raise blood sugar as quickly.
   If you’re talking calories, it still has the same amount of calories. They just don’t hit the blood stream as quickly as table sugar.
