Thick Yacon Syrup's Back At Cost
Published: Tue, 02/13/24
If you remember from the last time that we offered the Yacon Syrup ‘At-Cost’, I offered it at the best price yet, because I utilized my new fulfillment center’s packaging solutions.
However, I got the bulk Yacon Syrup from another one of my trusted Peruvian suppliers who does bulk versus just 8oz jars.
It is 100% Yacon Syrup, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. However, I had a complaint that it is not as thick as the previous one that we carried in the plastic squeeze jars. It just wasn’t concentrated down as much compared to our previous one. I think the thicker one is better, because the more concentrated it is, the more FOS that it contains. Again, there is nothing wrong with it, and some people may even like the thinner one more.
Firstly, I’d like to apologize about this. I always do my due diligence before switching. For example, I have a really good supplier who really wants to sell me his Organic Dried Mangoes. Therefore, I got a sample, and then I ordered a bag of our Mangoes to sample next to it. Of course, ours are way better, so I turned them down. I won’t allow something like that to happen again. Don’t get me wrong, the thin Yacon Syrup is a great product, but I always go through this process first, no matter how much I want to get you a better price.
Anyhow, I moved back to the previous, more thick, Yacon Syrup in the squeeze bottles, and we have it ‘At-Cost’ right now for only $12.95 when you get a 3-pack. If you liked the other thinner one better, we have a very limited supply at blowout pricing for only $9.95 each when you get a 3-pack. If you like the thinner one better, let me know, and maybe we can carry both in the future.
Regardless, ever since I shared the clinical study at the link here, where researchers tracked women who consumed 3-4 teaspoons of Yacon Syrup throughout the day for 4 months, it’s become a very popular product on our website.
After just four months, the women shedded on average 33 lbs, and 4 inches (10 centimeters) from their waist. At the same time, the placebo group gained an average of 3.5 lbs, and they also saw no significant changes in their waist circumference. During this four month period, they made zero changes in their diet.
Dr. Oz actually got a hold of this research study, and he conducted his own test study using the same parameters with his own studio audience members. They got very similar results in women’s body and waist circumference based on the timeframe that they did it for.
I actually found a portion of the Dr. Oz Yacon Syrup TV Show at the link below. In this video below, you will see one woman excitedly shout out in excitement how amazing her body looks with no exercise. Also in the video Dr. Oz gives the reasons why he thinks these women had such dramatic results with not only their bodies, but also all of the other health benefits that they got from taking Yacon Syrup.
Here is the Dr. Oz video at the link below. The first 10 seconds are really choppy, but it gets much better after that:

What’s even more, in that same clinical study above, there were several other extremely beneficial effects noted in the Yacon Syrup group. Their body mass index (BMI) decreased from 34 to 28 (from obese to down a level), their stool frequency increased from .28 per day to .99 per day, effectively curing them of constipation, fasting insulin levels went down by 42%, insulin resistance, a major risk factor for Diabetes and Heart Disease, was reduced by 67%, and LDL (the “bad”) cholesterol went from 137 to 97.5 (a 29% decrease). Lastly, all the women reported increased satiety. The study stated that this subjective effect could be related to the delay in gastric emptying, an indirect action of FOS.
Overall, the women who took Yacon Syrup had dramatic improvements in both their body and metabolic health, while the women taking the placebo pretty much stayed the same.
The conclusion on why so many women had such great results is because Yacon Syrup is loaded with the prebiotic FOS.
It is referenced in that study above that, "FOS are sugars found naturally in many types of plants, but never in concentrations as high as in Yacon Roots." Now Yacon Syrup, is even more special due to the way it is concentrated from the Yacon Root, as you will see in a second. Additionally, the state of this FOS within the Yacon Syrup is I believe more useable compared to any other food.
Yacon Syrup is obtained by concentrating the actual juice of Yacon Roots, which contains anywhere from 40-70% FOS, and that amount of FOS is then concentrated into a syrup giving you even more FOS per teaspoon compared to the juice. The FOS then turns into a state where it easily ferments in the colon, making it ready to be completely utilized by the colon.
In fact, in this clinical study above, it states, "Yacon FOS are completely fermented in the colon by a group of beneficial bacteria that form part of the intestinal microflora. These bacteria (especially of the genus Bifidus and Lactobacillus) improve the gastrointestinal function." This is exactly what makes Yacon Syrup so special and the best Superfoods on the planet for the colon. The FOS in our Yacon Syrup is completely fermented and utilized, by the typical beneficial bacteria species that are already found in our colons; Bifidus and Lactobacillus. It's the perfect combination for colon health.
Furthermore, the Yacon Syrup FOS are able to resist the hydrolysis of enzymes in the upper part of the human gastrointestinal tract, and it is not digestible by the human intestinal tract. Therefore, it goes straight to the colon, where it becomes fermented and fully utilized. Crazy amounts of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA's) are produced during the fermentation process, butyrate, acetate and all of the Postbiotics are created naturally at such a potent rate.
Taking our Yacon Syrup is literally like taking liquid FOS syrup, that bypasses everything, and goes directly to the colon coating it in the most useable FOS available making magical things happen. This is why I believe it's the best Superfood available for the colon.
In fact, I believe it is the best thing that you can take for Leaky Gut. In the clinical studies here, and here, they concluded that “Yacon reduced pH, intestinal permeability, and the oxidative stress associated with colon cancer. Yacon is a rich source of FOS which improves the intestinal barrier and mucosal immunity, particularly in healthy animals.” This FOS syrup, which goes directly to the colon improved the intestinal barrier and mucosal immunity.
Yacon Syrup also seems to be really good at protecting and preventing tumors and cancer in the colon, as I stated in the clinical study above. It’s also stated at the clinical study here, it states, “A significant reduction in cell proliferation in colonic crypts and tumors and short chain fatty acids (SCFA) caecal contents was observed in the groups orally treated with 1.0% yacon. Therefore, the findings in this study indicate that yacon intake may reduce the development of chemically-induced colon cancer.”
All of this is why I believe that Yacon Syrup is truly the best Superfood for the colon.
On top of that, it's really a good sweetener that not only tastes really good, but it's also low glycemic. In fact, in that first clinical study above, fasting insulin levels went down by 42%, insulin resistance was reduced by 67%, and LDL (the “bad”) cholesterol went from 137 to 97.5 (a 29% decrease). So I think this is the first time I have heard of an actual sweetener that is actually really good for blood sugars.
How much should you take per day to get results?
In the study, all of the participants took a teaspoon a few times a day. You can put it in juice, water, or even in your coffee is you are a coffee drinker. You can even mix it into your food. It's a really good sweetener, which seems to have only positive effects on insulin. In fact, 1 teaspoon of Yacon Syrup only has 7 calories.
I can't think of a better sweetener than Yacon Syrup lol. However, 1 teaspoon 3-4 times a day is all you need, which is the amount used in this study, and the amount used by Dr. Oz's studio audience. If you take more, you may experience excess gas.
Anyhow, we have our original, more thick, Yacon Syrup back, ‘At-Cost’ for only $12.95 each when you get a 3-pack.
