Great news people - you should definitely splurge on maple syrup. it's loaded with zinc and manganese (important antioxidants). plus, it's all natural. it's like drinking the blood of a tree - very good for you. so, next time you have a sweet tooth, forget the swiss cake roll and go for pancakes (you can get them in whole grain, fiber loaded, and lots of other healthier variations) and maple syrup. you can also use it as an alternative to sugar or sweetener in your coffee. it's got 210 calories per 1/4 cup, but i didn't say drink the whole bottle. if you're going to splurge on calories, this is definitely the way to do it. i try to work fiber pancakes with maple syrup into my diet several days a week. just be sure you get 100% pure maple syrup and not syrup that is mixed with anything else.
