FAQ

1. What is Monk Fruit Sweetener?

Monk Fruit Sweetener is a natural sugar substitute made from the extract of monk fruit (Luo Han Guo), a small fruit native to Southeast Asia. Its sweetness comes from naturally occurring compounds called mogrosides, which are intensely sweet but contain virtually no calories. Unlike regular sugar, monk fruit sweetener does not add refined sugar to your diet and is widely used as a healthier alternative for beverages, desserts, baking, and everyday cooking.

Monk fruit, scientifically known as Siraitia grosvenorii, is a small green melon cultivated for centuries. The fruit is naturally sweet because of antioxidants called mogrosides, which are many times sweeter than table sugar.
