That is Karupatti (Palm Jaggery) which is what my a sisters used for sweetening food!! It is Natural and has lots of health benefits!!! Some of the benefits are;
- It helps in Digestion!!
- He cleanses the body from unnecessary particles!!
- It is a remedy for caugh, dry caugh and cold to my knowledge!!!
- It is rich in minerals like iron, magnesium, potassium and phosphorous!!
Started the practice of using Palm Jaggery in milk & juice!!! It is somewhat different to the taste buds, but want to perceive with this considering the health benefits!!
