Pure Nature Jaggery

Jaggery is a traditional non-centrifugal cane sugar consumed in the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, Central America, Pakistan, Brazil and Africa.

Jaggery contains iron, fibre, and minerals in addition to calories, in contrast to sugar, which just provides calories and no other nutrients. While jaggery is nutritionally superior to sugar, it is essential to consume it in moderation due to its high-calorie content.

Jaggery is used as an ingredient in sweet and savoury dishes in the cuisines of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Iran. For example, a pinch of it is sometimes added to sambar, rasam and other staples in Udupi cuisine. Jaggery is added to lentil soups (dāl) to add sweetness to balance the spicy, salty, and sour components, particularly in Gujarati cuisine.
In Tamil Nadu, jaggery is used exclusively as a sweetener. It is used in a dish called chakkarai pongal. It is prepared during the festival of Pongal (Thai Pongal), which is held when the harvesting season begins. It is used to make kalhi, to sweeten fruit salads and payasam (sweet milk) that are offered to the gods. Jaggery is used in religious rituals. In rural areas, cane jaggery and palm jaggery are used to sweeten beverages, whereas refined sugar has replaced it in urban areas.

Presence of calcium in jaggery may help in improving bone health. It may purify blood and help in managing diseases like jaundice. The presence of zinc and other minerals in jaggery may help in boosting immunity. When consumed in moderate amount, jaggery may help manage constipation, stomach pain and improve digestion.
