Frequently Asked Questions

Is Meridian Foods Organic Barley Malt Extract better for you than refined white sugar?

Unlike refined white sugar, Meridian Foods Organic Barley Malt Extract is not just empty calories. It is a natural sweetener made up of more complex sugars that will enter the bloodstream more slowly. This means it is less likely to cause a blood sugar spike and crash.

Organic Barley Malt Extract also contains lots of essential nutrients, trace minerals and antioxidants. Like any ‘added sugar’, it shouldn’t be consumed in large quantities, however it is a great healthy replacement for refined sugars or artificial sweeteners.
