Yacon Tea

Sweetylight Yacon Tea is a tea that is made from the leaves of the Yacon plant which is indigenous to the Andes.

The leaves have been used by ancient civilizations in South America for centuries and it has been rediscovered recently by western societies. The tea is used by many diabetics since the tea reduces blood sugar level. Research has been done about this property of the Yacon leaves in Argentina and it proved that a normal dose of tea(three servings per day) over a 30 day period has actually reduced glucose levels, increased plasma insulin and other body characteristics improved such as body weight, and renal parameters. Because of this sugar reducer property the product is becoming popular among people with diabetes and dieters.
