The Coconut Secret Story: When both our parents learned they were diabetic, my brother and I were deeply inspired to search the world for pure, truly delicious, low glycemic foods. We were rewarded and blessed beyond expectations in our discovery of the traditional products made from the sap of the wondrous coconut tree. It is our great joy to be able to share with you the gifts of these exceptional ingredients. - Leslie and Randy. Health Secrets of Coconut Aminos: When the coconut tree is tapped it produces a highly nutrient-rich sap that exudes from the coconut blossoms. This sap is very low glycemic (GI of only 35) and contains a wide range of minerals, vitamin C, broad-spectrum B vitamins, 17 amino acids, and has a nearly neutral pH. Our organic Coconut Aminos is made from this pure sap and contains 73% less sodium (only 90 mg per tsp) than the leading brands of soy sauce averaging 333 mg per tsp.
