Jaggery is a natural product of sugarcane. It is in more unrefined form than sugar. It is a brown raw mass of sucrose which gets it color because of other elements found in concentration such as wood ash and bagasse. Jaggery is commonly made from two products that are sugar cane and date palm tree. It can also be used to sweeten drinks like tea and coffee. Jaggery is recommended to be eaten after meals daily as it prevents constipation and helps in digestion by activating the digestive enzymes in our body. Ideally the colour of the jaggery should be dark brown. The yellowish colour in gur may indicate chemical treatment. Prefer buying hard jaggery; this ensures that there are no additives added while boiling the sugarcane juice.
