Description

Round Jaggery / உருண்டை வெல்லம்

It is a concentrated product of cane juice and often date or palm sap without separation of the molasses and crystals, and can vary from golden brown to dark brown in colour. It is manufactured from sugar cane. While round jaggery is useful in Indian Cooking, it is also an ancient part of Ayurvedic Medicine and has spiritual significance in India. In Indian Cooking, Jaggery can sweeten some of the savory dishes. Shopping for this sugar may be eaten in small slices alone as a dessert, or it may be combined with spices to make a variety of Indian desserts and candies.

Health Benefits of Round Jaggery:

  1. It prevents constipation by aiding digestion. It activates the digestive enzymes in our body, thus helps in proper digestion of food. That’s why many people prefer eating jaggery after a meal.
  2. It acts as a detox, as it helps cleanse the liver by flushing out nasty toxins from the body.
  3. Jaggery is loaded with antioxidants and minerals like zinc and selenium, which help prevent free-radicals (responsible for early ageing). It helps boost resistance against infections, hence building stronger immunity.
  4. Eating a piece of round jaggery daily can help women combat PMS symptoms including mood swings, menstrual cramps and abdominal pain.
  5. Jaggery acts as a natural sweetener and provides energy over an extended period of time. Even factory-made honey has been deemed unhealthy because it gets ripped of its nutrients. That’s when jaggery steps in!
It is, however, suggested to consume round jaggery in moderation, as it is slightly higher in calories, containing up to 4 kcal/gram. People who are diabetic or are following a weight loss diet should monitor their consumption of jaggery, as it can lead to weight gain and fluctuations in blood-sugar levels.
