We thought, why take calcium supplements when you can enjoy laddus instead? And the Sesame Iron & Calcium Laddu for Strong Bones was born! Take two daily to boost your Iron & Calcium Intake.
Sesame seeds are a traditional Indian superfood. Combined with rich Blackstrap Molasses, they become even better!
Here's why Sesame seeds are amazingly healthy:
Sesame Seeds are Nutrient-Rich: Sesame seeds are a good source of iron and calcium as well as other minerals, minerals, fiber, healthy fats, and protein.
Anti Cancer Potential of Sesame Seeds: Sesame seeds contain cancer-fighting lignans. Research has shown that lignans can help in preventing breast and prostate cancers.
Anti-inflammatory Benefits of Sesame Seeds: If you're looking for a calcium source to reduce osteoarthritis pain, sesame seeds may be the best option. In a two-month study, sesame seeds significantly reduced osteoarthritis pain in participants. This may be due to anti-inflammatory compounds found in sesame seeds.
Blood Pressure Regulation by Sesame Seeds: The phytonutrient sesamin in sesame seeds can help reduce blood pressure by a few points within just one month. This can help reduce stroke and heart attack risk by up to 5%.
Heart Health Benefits of Sesame Seeds: Sesame seeds are a fantastic source of phytosterols, which powerfully achieve cholesterol reduction. In fact, sesame seeds can give you maximum benefit out of all foods - nuts, seeds, whole grains, pulses and legumes!
Apart from these, our Sesame Iron & Calcium Laddus have another added benefit. They are sweetened with Black Molasses.
What is Blackstrap Molasses?
It is the nutrient-rich jaggery syrup that is left after most of the sugar has been extracted from it three times in a row.
In other words, it is 'jaggery MINUS white sugar'.
Because of this, it has all the good nutrients of jaggery without the harmful white sugar!
You don't see it often in shops near you because it is fermented to make alcohol in sugar factories because it is nutrient rich.
Health Benefits of Molasses:
Blackstrap Molasses gives you Stable Blood Sugar: Sugar, jaggery, maple syrup and even honey can cause a blood sugar spike after eating them. On the other hand, Blackstrap Molasses has been found to keep your blood sugar levels steady. This is especially useful if you are diabetic or have PCOS/PCOD.
Blackstrap Molasses is rich in nutrients: Unlike refined sugar, blackstrap molasses contains multiple vitamins and minerals including iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and vitamin B6.
Prevent Anemia with Blackstrap Molasses: Blackstrap Molasses is a rich source of plant-based iron with high bioavailability. This can help you prevent iron deficiency anemia.
Prevent Constipation in Children: Because blackstrap molasses contains polysaccharides, it can help bulk up stool and make it soft and easy to pass. The potassium content also helps improve muscle contractions to ease constipation.
Strengthen Bones: A single tablespoon of Blackstrap Molasses can give you up to 10% DV of calcium, making bones stronger and preventing osteoporosis.
