Carbs and Fiber in Waffle Syrup Food Item: Waffle Syrup Waffle Syrup and DietNot permitted on low carb diets, syrups (like Waffle Syrup) are typically 'empty-calorie' foods (high-calorie, minimal nutrition) with no dietary fiber. Moreover, syrup is high in refined carb sugars and high on the Glycemic Index, which means it causes a rapid rise in blood-sugar levels, leading to excessive insulin production and a sudden drop in blood glucose. The longer-term health effects of high-GI foods and consequent unstable blood sugar levels, include hyperglycemia, hyperinsulimia, obesity and other symptoms, known collectively as insulin resistance syndrome. Increased risk of diabetes is another possibility. See also Diabesity and Insulin Resistance. Bottom line: if you want to lose weight and stay healthy, keep your intake of refined sugar carbs in foods like Waffle Syrup, to a sensible minimum. For more details about carbs in syrup, see below. Note: Nutritional values in some syrups and syrupy foods can vary, so the above carbohydrate details for Waffle Syrup are intended as a guideline only. |
