NETHI ARISELU / ADHIRASAM / KAJJAYA

         The word ‘dessert’ has originated from a French word ‘desservir’.  Desservir means ‘to serve’ or ‘to clear away’.  How can you end a meal by clearing your tummy?  Just give it a thought.  So, it is always best when you start a meal with a sweet/dessert to secrete enough saliva and tantalize your taste buds.  This is more emphasized in ayurveda as it enables the flow of digestive secretions rather than slowing down your digestion by consuming it at the end of a meal.  After your brain has sent out satiety signals to your tongue and mouth to stop, never gobble a sweet by falling into the sweet trap with heavy calorie loaded sugars; instead do it before you start your meal – Follow this to maintain a good health.

What you procure from eating a jaggery based sweet?     

       Though jaggery and sugar are common sweeteners obtained from the same sources and used throughout the world, their properties are different.  Sugar is only made up of sucrose while jaggery is made up of sucrose mixed with some mineral salts, iron, and also fiber.  If you are diabetic then jaggery is just better than sugar.

         Sugar always gets absorbed instantly in your blood and gives a burst of energy levels, but they are harmful for your kidney, eyes and brain.  Kids normally need such energy because they spend out more by playing and learning.  But this can be avoided by adults to the extent possible and for keeping your energy high as well as providing enough iron for your body you can take jaggery.  Any jaggery based sweet is a cleansing agent for your lungs, stomach, intestine, esophagus and respiratory tracts.

         Moreover, in India it is believed that offering jaggery based sweet to the gods and goddesses is more holy because it does not contain bone charcoal.  Bone charcoal is actually used in the cleansing process of sugar cane juice to treat the syrup and when condensed and crystallized results in the clear, transparent or white color of sugar.
