Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener is the only zero calorie, zero glycemic sweetener that is just like sugar. Over a thousand years ago - In the remote mountain highlands of Asia, a group of Buddhist monks called the Louhan achieved enlightenment and ascension through meditation and pure living. The monks discovered a rare superfood prized for its sweetness and its ability to raise chi, or life energy. This sacred fruit was named monk fruit and was used for centuries to increase chi and well-being, earning it the nickname "The Immortals' Fruit." We still harvest monk fruit for Lakanto in the same pristine area according to traditional and environmental methods. #DiscoverYourChi Lakanto's mission is to bring chi to life by inspiring people to reach their highest potential in health and wellness and by creating products that are innovative, delicious, natural, nutritious, and sugar-free or no sugar added.
