Yesterday, I came to know about Palm candy (Taal mishri in Hindi and Panakarkandu in Tamil)… my MIL said they used to give Palm candy to children instead of sugar. I then did some research about it and thought of sharing with you all as this is really a nice substitute for sugar.
This is what I found –
Palm Candy is a nutrient rich, low Glycemic crystalline sweetener; it is completely natural. It has a number of minerals, vitamins, calcium, iron and phyto nutrients including zinc and potassium. The sugar content in palm sugar is well balanced. It is a good source of Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6 and B12. Palm sugar having Glycemic index is good for women with PCOS.
