Maple syrup is an excellent source of manganese and a good source of zinc, both beneficial to the immune system. The sugar in maple syrup is sucrose and invert sugar, a breakdown product of sucrose. White sugar is slightly more refined and is sucrose. Overall, there is no evidence that maple syrup is better for you than white sugar.
