End a Meal with Jaggery


Our elders knew it was not just apples, but many a small kitchen spice and condiment that kept doctors away. One of these, jaggery, is the key to many secret health tips—it keeps the immune system strong and maintains clean flow of blood. 
 
Detoxes liver: Jaggery is a natural body cleanser. 
It helps reduce the workload of the liver and detoxifies the organ by flushing out harmful toxins from the body. Boosts immunity: Jaggery is loaded with antioxidants and minerals such as zinc and selenium. These prevent free-radical damage and also boost resistance against infections. Prevents anaemia: Rich in iron and folate, jaggery helps prevent anaemia.
