Other ingredients
Agave NectarSweetener
Agave nectar is ~70–90% fructose by composition (vs sucrose's 50% and high-fructose corn syrup's 55%). Low glycemic index is a fructose artifact — fructose bypasses insulin-mediated metabolism and is preferentially shuttled to hepatic de novo lipogenesis. Chronic high-fructose intake is associated with hepatic steatosis, insulin resistance, and adverse lipid changes (Stanhope 2009 RCT). The 'natural' / 'healthier than sugar' marketing positioning contradicts the metabolic profile. Per brand voice: this is a clearer case than most of marketing-vs-science divergence.
MaltodextrinBinder
Spikes blood sugar faster than table sugar (glycemic index 85–105). Research links it to gut bacteria changes that may promote intestinal inflammation (Nickerson et al. 2015). Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.
