Nevertheless, I have seen other articles from different sources stating that agave is high fructose. It is generally accepted by alternative practitioners that we should try to stay below 15 grams of fructose per day. Cancer cells seem to die if they have no fructose. I am not a specialist myself but I have seen an awful lot of literature to this effect.

A lot of Mercola's articles are over the top, misleading not from false statements but misleading emphasis. In fact he does mention raw organic agave is not HFCS - in between endless warnings about "most" agave. We only use Trader Joe's raw (unprocessed) organic blue agave, and only rarely.

People do need warning about "most" agave, but it's a disservice for Mercola not to stress that raw organic agave is NOT HFCS. I recall seeing Dr. Oz tell Mercola he doesn't agree with everything he says.

We use no sugar or other sweetener and don't miss it. Barb does use raw
agave
nectar for some baking tho.
