BENEFITS OF ORGANIC COUNTRY SUGAR (UNPROCESSED SUGAR)

Most of us will be unaware of the term, 'Country sugar' which is used in the topic. At present, almost everyone consumes nearly 90-95% of sugar in his/her food either directly or indirectly. But many of us are not aware that we are consuming a processed chemical product. Chemicals like bone char are used in industries for whitening the raw sugar into clear crystalline sugar which we are using now. Bone char is taken from animal bones....Yes.....You heard it right... So, Processed Sugar is not a vegetarian dish😰

Why table sugar is not healthy?
         The Table sugar or Refined sugar has not much minerals like the Unrefined sugar. Most people prefer table sugar as it does not change the colour of any beverage when added while increasing the sugar content. But we should also note that "All that Glitters are not Gold". There is practically many harmful effects with consumption of table sugar like increase in weight, increase in blood sugar, degradation of vitamins and minerals in our body etc.

Can Sugar free sweeteners be useful?
           It is even more hazardous to our health. Several studies claim that there is an increase in the body weight of persons who consume these kind of artificial sweeteners. Also, it affects our health by killing the good microbes available in our stomach which aids digestion.

What is the Country sugar or Unrefined sugar or Brown sugar???

Country Sugar and Sugarcane

       It is prepared naturally from sugarcane by using the traditional method of crushing sugarcane grown organically. Unlike other industry sugar products, they are prepared and packed directly by farmers and supplied to consumers which neglects any middlemen which in turn prevents any adulteration or excess storage. Also, they contain all the nutrients and minerals which are present in the Sugarcane. 

Predominantly, country sugar contains iron and antioxidants………Even a sugar patient can add country sugar in his diet.

PRODUCTION OF COUNTRY SUGAR
           The basic raw material for the production of country sugar or organic sugar is Sugarcane. The sugar content is present in the stem of the sugarcane. So, initially the leaves are removed and the outer skin of the sugarcanes are peeled off. Then the sugarcane stem is sent for chopping and crushing. A series of crushing rolls or mills will be present for maximum extraction of sugar juice. After the extraction of sugar juice, the remaining solid part (called as molasses) is sent to farms for fertilizer purposes. 
Then the concentration of the sugar syrup has to be increased. So, evaporators are used to concentrate the sugar solution. Baking soda is added to the solution so that the impurities bind with the Baking soda to form suspensions that settle at the bottom. The impurities are separated and further heating of the solution is done to increase the concentration. On solidification we get the county sugar in complex structure. So, finally milling may be done for even size particle production.
                 
BENEFITS OF UNREFINED SUGAR:
  1. Nourishes the skin
  2. Treats acne and pimples
  3. Boosts secretion of digestive enzymes
  4. Regulates bowel moment
  5. Prevents digestive disorders
  6. Purifies blood
  7. Cools the stomach
  8. Boosts iron absorption
  9. Improves sperm quality and production
  10. Helps with urinary problems
Apart from these benefits, you will also avoid the dangers caused by white sugar consumption.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JAGGERY AND COUNTRY SUGAR
If the sugar syrup is made as a ball-shaped compound manually or is poured into cuboid or spherical castings, then the final product will be jaggery. Jaggery is a solidified form of country sugar. Normally country sugar is available as Jaggery or in powdered form.

WHY PEOPLE PREFER WHITE SUGAR THAN COUNTRY SUGAR?
The primary reasons for the purchase of white sugar rather than country sugar are its availability and cheap cost. The quantity of white sugar produced will be higher than the organic sugar for a fixed weight of sugarcane. So, they manufacturers are compelled to increase the price of the Country sugar. 
White sugar does not change the colour of any solution yet increases the sweetness of the product. While the addition of country sugar may have an impact on the colour of the final product.
Also, a lot of people have no awareness related to the Organic sugar, its benefits etc.

CONCLUSION
Thus, to live a healthy life, add organic foods in your diet rather than the commercial one. Share this post with your friends and help them choose the right thing for their healthy diet.
