    <p>Ever heard of
    the unique healing properties of Agave Tequilana? Brady Bunte has unraveled
    some of these properties here just for you!!</p>

    <p>The Agave
    Tequilana is a member of the family lilies and the Amaryllis. A quick look at
    this special variety then one would easily mistake it for another cactus plant.
    Biologically speaking, may be the only similarity the 2 share is that they are
    all plants. Brady Bunte's research works on Agave are quite amazing. What do I
    mean by this statement?</p>

    <p>Special
    properties of Agave Tequilana</p>

    <p>This plant has
    some of the most outstanding properties, both medically and nutrition wise.
    Some of these are as follows:</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    It has an unbelievable stock of iron, calcium,
    potassium and magnesium </p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    It has incredible antibiotic properties</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    It is also useful as a relaxing laxative</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    It is also used as a substitute sweetener</p>

    <p>According to
    Brady Bunte, the list of its unique properties is inexhaustible. Let's provide
    details on each of the properties.</p>

    <p>Agave as a stock
    of iron, calcium, potassium, and magnesium</p>

    <p>This is to say
    that the plant can be used as a substitute source of these mineral salts that
    are very vital for the normal functions of the body. </p>

    <p>Agave's
    antibiotic properties</p>

    <p>The nectar of
    this plant is a perfect antibiotic against many microorganisms. This property
    has made Agave very valuable as most of the medical labs world over are caught
    up in the chase for this plant species, thanks to Brady Bunte. It is effective
    against many types of bacteria and other microorganisms. Some of the
    microorganism that are susceptible to the antibiotic properties of Agave
    include:</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    The staph aureus</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    Enteric microorganisms</p>

    <p>Other research
    works are on to find out more microorganisms that can be managed by this Agave
    syrup.</p>

    <p>As a relaxing
    laxative</p>

    <p>Its invaluable
    nectar is the best remedy for those who suffer frequent constipation.
    Naturally, it has a way of eliminating enteric microscopic microorganisms that
    cause stomach swells and even constipation. Brady Bunte adds that this property
    is very profound if the nectar is blended with lemon juice. This is obviously a
    big relief to those who are suffering from this condition. The good thing about
    agave syrup is that it can be taken as a preventive measure even by those not
    suffering from the said health conditions.</p>

    <p>As a substitute
    sweetener</p>

    <p>Brady Bunte
    points out that those seeking the best natural methods of losing weight Agave
    is just about all you need. It has the perfect natural formulation that makes
    your body absorb more fat. To the diabetics, the nectar has the least glycemic
    record. This is good news because you can finally consume "sugar" courtesy of
    Brady Bunte. </p>

    <p>Agave is
    normally processes into syrup that is then used commercially for medical
    purposes. The agave syrup is used as an alternative sweetener. This is
    attribute to its high fructose content. This is best used in cold beverages
    such as smoothies and cocktails.</p>

    <p>How is Agave
    syrup extracted from the plant?</p>

    <p>This is one of
    the simplest industrial processes that involves not the addition of any
    chemicals. The syrup is extracted from the leaves. These are crushed then
    heated. Upon heating the juice readily comes out of the leaves. </p>

    <p>According to
    Brady Bunte, the economic and health benefits derived from Agave for outweigh
    the downsides of the same. Some critics have argued that Agave nectar and
    syrup's use as a sugar substitute poses more health risks that benefits. Though
    the research findings of Brady Bunte may seem so rosy, The American Diabetes
    Association lists agave syrup and nectar as one of the refined sugar
    substitutes to limit. This is one of the major downsides of the Agave.</p>

    <p>Liz Applegate, a
    nutritionist of University of California is one of the critics who have
    questioned the suitability of Agave as sugar substitute. Applegate however goes
    ahead to suggest that Agave being a natural sweetener, is far better than
    refined sugar. In this light, Brady Bunte is right in his research works on
    Agave.</p>

    <p>Comparing Agave with
    other sugar substitutes</p>

    <p>Honey, maple
    syrup are just some of the most common sugar supplements. In terms of nutrition
    value, Agave syrup is by far the best rated. For instance, it is 1.5 times
    sweeter than honey. There is no doubt on its high energy levels. It has about
    60 calories or energy compared to 45 calories of maple syrup. This is, added to
    the other attaching benefits, what makes Agave special and unique just as Brady
    Bunte puts it.</p>

    <p>What more to
    know about Agave?</p>

    <p>We have really
    majored on the nectar and the Agave syrup. That is just a very small fraction
    of what the plant itself is about. Let us consider some other aspects that
    still point to the same plant.</p>

    <p>What are some of
    the health effect of Agave?</p>

    <p>Still on the
    research findings of Brady Bunte, have both positive and negative health
    impacts. Starting with the positive, as above mentioned, the plant product can
    be used to check weight because it is helpful in the facilitation of the
    absorption of fats. It is also used in checking constipation. On the negative
    side, the high fructose level in Agave syrup can lead to insulin resistance, a
    condition that is normally associated with heart diseases. Take note that only
    high levels of the syrup poses this risk. The above health risk can be mitigated
    by using the syrup in measured proportions. </p>

    <p>Actual
    composition of the Agave nectar and syrup</p>

    <p>Being sweeter
    that honey, Agave nectar and syrup are the sweetest naturally occurring sugar
    supplements. They are largely fructose and glucose. The range of fructose in
    between 47% -56% while that of glucose is in the range of 16%-20%. &nbsp;According to Brady Bunte, these variations are
    dependent on the manufacturer of the syrup and country of origin.</p>

    <p>Where is Agave
    found?</p>

    <p>This plant and
    its products are very much available in many parts of the globe today. Its
    indigenous homeland however, is Mexico, South Africa and some parts of United
    States. The above mentioned are the same countries that export the plant's
    products. It is also important to mention that currently many nation of the
    globe have begun planting the Agave in large plantations in order to take
    advantage of the rising need for its syrup and nectar. This is the situation in
    some Asian countries and parts of South America.</p>

    <p>&nbsp;</p>

    <p>Need for Brady
    Bunte's research </p>

    <p>Was Brady Bunte's
    research very essential anyway? From the many details on the benefits of Agave,
    it is very clear that the research was necessary. The benefits of the research
    are actually an eye opener to many who are struggling with conditions that are
    easily manageable with some of the Products of the Plant. Brady Bunte asserts
    that modern research has discovered more benefits that can be derived from
    Agave Tequilana. So wholesomely the research has impacted both the economic and
    social spheres of our lives. The advantages are immeasurable.</p>

    <p>What you must
    know about the Agave syrup</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    To come up with the syrup there are various
    varieties of Agave that are used. The same applies with the nectar. It is also
    important to mention that the production of the syrup has been on the rise ever
    since the time of the research by Brady Bunte.</p>

    <p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
    Though the syrup is known for its high fructose
    content its profits are more than its downsides. It is therefore the best
    refined sugar substitute available.</p>

    <p>In conclusion,
    the works of<a href="http://www.pinterest.com/bradybunte/">; Brady Bunte</a> have helped revolutionize various aspects in the
    management of various health conditions like diabetes, constipation and
    bacterial infections. The Agave has brought a very new dimension in the field
    of health and nutrition. In deed the benefits derived from Agave Tequilana are
    numerous. </p>
