What is meant by "this syrup contains up to 50% of FOS (fructooligosacharides)"? Does it have 50% FOS or not? What other ingredients does it contain?

This product is NOT a fructose sweetener. It is a high fiber prebiotic sweetener containing up to 50% FOS. FOS is not fructose. The label says 100% pure. No other ingredient is listed.

It is a fructose sweetener substituting for sugar. Fos is half as sweet as sugar and a healthy substitute but still should be used in moderation to avoid a high fructose load that had been linked to health issues including cancer I believe.

This IS NOT "fructose-fee/sugarless." My January 2014 purchase lists:"Other IngredientsOrganic AGAVE SYRUP [emphasis added ], mannitol, sorbitol, natural flavors (coconut and milk), cocoa bean powder, silicon dioxide, rice starch, organic gum acacia, and maltodextrin."As of this date (March 8, 2014), this listing is identical to that found on Enzymatic's website.Agave syrup is, in fact, a high fructose (sugar) sweetener. See my 1-star review for details.

One serving has 7 grams of sugar in the form of 100% crystalline fructose, sorbitol and apple juice concentrate. Fructose is bad, for sure, but it is a nominal amount. It really doesn't help make the stuff taste better so I don't know why they bother.

I'm not sure where you are seeing sugar listed as an ingredient. Mine does not contain sugar. The only ingredient is cacao powder.

Hi Phyllo i don't think it is listed on the bottle but the company responded to an earlier question asking the same thing below. They said it has 67% FOS and it also say that on their websitehttp://www.amazon.com/Whats-percentage-this-Yacon-Syrup/forum/Fx2TP36S17HFABT/Tx1RD5UFB99PO3H/1/ref=cm_cd_ql_tlc_al?_encoding=UTF8&asin;=B00H3TT74G

It is definitely Sucralose as it is very, very sweet, the image posted must be a mixed up label. I would definitely order from them again -- although 50 grams is probably going to last me years.

I just contacted the manufacturer re whether this syrup contains phosphoric acid, for some claim it does not but their website bottle image shows is does. They have confirmed it does contain it, so those of us with osteoporosis need to know that.

There is no direct reference on product label to any of the items you list save sugar. It specifically indicates the product contains no sugar.

It says fructose and sucrose on the ingredients list. Try the no sugar added cherries by Country Spoon!

If you are referring to 'FOS' as additional sweetner, according to the label (which you can see on Amazon) there are no additional ingredients....just yacon. Hope this helps.

Sorry, but the label does not specifies what the other 30% ingredients are.

Ingredients: yacon syrup (small thus sonchifolus). The front label says it is 100% pure. There is not anything on the bottle that says FOS=?. Does this answer your question?

The bottle doesn't specify percentages of ingredients; however, it is about half way down on the list of ingredients. So, knowing that the highest percentage is first, then I would say maybe about 50%. Hope this helps. And, just to let you know, the product is fabulous!

Thanks for bringing the sugar question up, however, I don't know why. I did purchase Setton Farms organic Royal Quinoa from another web site, and it contains 1gr. of sugar. I was not aware that the product contained any sugar. Who knew??? I do like TruRoots quinoa, and will probably continue buying it despite the sugar. I don't believe in my year of eating TruRoots quinoa that it has had any negative affects. I do not use any added sugar in my diet, and do not eat processed food or meat.

Package says "brown rice syrup, dried cane syrup, natural peppermint oil, and other natural flavors". Under supplement facts, it lists 2g of sugar per piece. I would go to TummyDrops website and email them for more details.

Listed in ingredient: "Less than 1% natural fruit sugar" That is all that is mentioned about sugar on carton.
