Agave -good or bad, and why??

[Annaka]

I know that Agave is considered a processed food but I was wondering if anyone has any reputable sources, articles or websites that explain this? I have a family member who does not really "believe" that agave is that bad!
Thanks!

If you google it there is tons of info. Here are a couple links to news stories

You can also use the search engine on this forum to catch up with the agave discussions -- many of them -- that have taken place. There are references and links to several good articles, if I remember correctly.
