1. Regulates blood sugar: Palm sugar has a lower glycemic index than table sugar and is considered a healthier alternative. This helps to regulate sugar levels in the bloodstream better than other sweeteners

3. Promotes good digestion: Raw palm sugar contains a dietary fiber called inulin. Studies have found that this plant-based fiber can promote better digestion, control bacteria in the gut, and improve the body’s mineral absorption

4. Detoxifies liver: Taking a small amount of raw palm sugar routinely can cleanse and detoxify our liver, which will flush out harmful toxins from our bodies

5. Electrolyte balance: Palm sugar helps in treating dehydration problems and maintains the electrolyte levels within the cells of our body. It is an excellent substitute for regular sugar for making the ORS

Natural Raw Palm sugar comes with a mild caramel taste but it can be substituted for regular sugar with approximately the same measures as the recipes call for. Since the texture is similar it can be a very effective substitute.

Palm sugar can be used in curries, and desserts such as puddings, peanut brittle, etc. It can also be used in hot & cold beverages like coffee, tea, juices, etc. It can be also used in sweets either in powder or granular forms. It can be melted or baked just as regular refined sugar and used in your recipe

I am Palanimalai from Salem, Tamilnadu. Raw Palm sugar is one of the many products that I manufacture. Palm sugar requires a lot of skill to prepare. Sap, collected from flower stems of rain-fed Palmyra trees is evaporated to make Palm jaggery. This jaggery is grated and sun-dried for 3 days to create this sugar. Palm jaggery is very sensitive to the atmosphere around and that affects the quality of the sugar. Only under the perfect conditions can Palm sugar taste good. With no preservatives, you can also enjoy this wonderful sugar. Thank you!
