Ingredient
Organic Sugar
Scout's take
Organic sugar is a refined sweetener that can contribute to increased calorie intake and potential metabolic issues. Despite being organic, it still poses similar health risks as conventional sugar when consumed in excess. It lacks significant nutritional benefits and can lead to weight gain and insulin resistance.
