Benefits of jaggery:

Jaggery is made by boiling sugarcane juice to a certain temperature. Putting the mixture in the molds to set. And when it cools down it is then packed to distribute to shops and retailers. The best time to consume jaggery is in winters as winters are the season of sugarcane and you get very fresh jaggery to consume which helps in boosting the immunity and fight against cold and cough. Jaggery should be consumed every day at least 10-20 grams. It eases up the blood circulations, removes toxin and gives shine to the face. You get a lot of options available in the market of this combination, one such is chikki. But I would suggest trying this one and not chikki. If possible have organic peanuts, roast them up, peel. Partner it with pure organic soft jaggery (brown color, NOT the white one)
