Old jaggery, along with strengthening the body, helps in absorbing minerals in the body very fast. That is why we use old jaggery more than new jaggery. Old jaggery is very good for eliminating phlegm i.e. for removing the disorder of phlegm. Suppose a person produces a lot of phlegm. If such a person is given at least 30 to 40 grams of old jaggery daily, then phlegm formation in his body will stop and the phlegm already accumulated in the body will melt and come out.

Consume this much daily

Therefore, make it a habit to eat a little jaggery (30 to 40 grams) every day after meals. This will improve digestion and also provide good energy. Therefore, jaggery should be consumed daily.
