The Science
How It Helps Your Body
Unlike white sugar, which is nutritionally empty, jaggery retains the natural iron (11mg/100g) and potassium from sugarcane juice. Just 20g of jaggery after a meal provides 2.2mg of iron — 15% of the daily requirement for adult women. Jaggery acts as a natural laxative, stimulating bowel movements and cleansing the alimentary canal. It is also Ayurveda's prescribed remedy for respiratory conditions — consumed warm with ginger to loosen mucus and soothe sore throats.
