Risks & side effects

No cited risks or side-effect notes on file yet.

Not medical advice. Published recipe penalties (if any) are on Methods — not a clinical severity scale.

Notes

• Phillips et al. (JADA 2009) did not assay coconut sugar in their FRAP panel — antioxidant capacity left empty here rather than borrowed from maple/molasses or from coconut-sap studies.

  Empty-over-invention. Separate coconut-sap / syrup antioxidant papers exist but are not this crystalline row.

Notes explain what the open axis or risk labels alone can miss — not medical advice.
