NOW&ampreg; Brown Rice Syrup is a healthy, natural sweetener with a mild, buttery flavor and&ampnbsp;a delicate sweetness that makes it ideal for use in baking and desserts.&ampnbsp; Unlike simple sugars, such as monosaccharides and disaccharides, Brown Rice Syrup is a polysaccharide, or a complex sugar.&ampnbsp; The unique structure of complex sugars allows them to be absorbed and broken down more slowly than simple sugars, avoiding rapid spikes in blood glucose.&ampnbsp; Slower absorption also allows the body to utilize complex sugars for energy instead of having to store them as fat for later use.&ampnbsp; Brown Rice Syrup is made by fermenting brown rice with special enzymes that break down the natural starch content of the rice.&ampnbsp; This process produces a translucent syrup that's an excellent alternative to white and brown sugar.&ampnbsp;
