Product Insights
Agave nectar is an organic, vegan sweetener marketed from France and the United Kingdom and falls under the syrup category of the PNNS dietary groups. It carries a Nutri‑Score of A (score 0) and is classified as an ultra‑processed product (NOVA 4), containing essentially no fat, salt, protein and only 3 g of sugars per 100 g, which translates to about 14 kcal. While its very low sugar and calorie levels are positive, the ultra‑processed nature and lack of micronutrients mean it should be used sparingly as a sweetener.
