I haven't been too concerned about GI stuff...I just try to keep my foods clean and eat a fruit or vegetable with everything.

I eat the local honey because I can get it at the Farmer's Market and having it every day in the summer seems to help with my allergies. (This hasn't been scientifically proven, definitively, but I see improvement.)

Is the agave nectar expensive? I have some Stevia around somewhere...
