After reading through the website I decided that I would tell you about the health benefits of Blackstrap Molasses. I use this stuff
everyday and I love it. I do admit that it took some getting used to….
Blackstrap molasses is just one type of molasses, the dark
liquid byproduct of the process of refining sugar cane into
table sugar. It is made from the third boiling of the sugar
syrup and is therefore the concentrated byproduct left
over after the sugar's sucrose has been crystallized.
Blackstrap molasses is a sweetener that is actually good
for you. Unlike refined white sugar and corn syrup, which
are stripped of virtually all nutrients except simple
carbohydrates, or artificial sweeteners like saccharine or
aspartame, which not only provide no useful nutrients but
have been shown to cause health problems in sensitive
individuals, blackstrap molasses is a healthful sweetener
that contains significant amounts of a variety of minerals
that promote your health.
Molasses is an excellent source of calcium, iron, copper, manganese, potassium and magnesium in a low fat, low calorie form.
Look for blackstrap molasses that is unsulphured since not only does it not contain this processing chemical to which some
people are sensitive, but it has a cleaner and more clarified taste. Blackstrap molasses made from organic sugar cane is also
available in some markets.
Molasses should be stored in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator or a cool, dry place. Unopened containers should
keep for about one year, while opened containers should keep for about six months.

The greatest advantage of molasses is its ability to conveniently supplement the diet of the busy twenty-first-century citizen with
easily assimilated natural nutrients. Like most things natural, its effects are slow but cumulative and, as such, it should be used
regularly.
In his book about Molasses, the British nutritionist, Cyril Scott, describes his own and other healer's successes in treating
anemia, rheumatism, arthritis, ulcers, colitis, varicose veins and benign tumors. Scott testifies to the success of molasses in
reversing hair graying and even in the external treatment of wounds. Gaylord Hauser, the well-known nutritionist and author,
particularly praises molasses as a natural laxative. Because molasses is high in iron, nutritionists often recommend it to pregnant
and lactating women.
Molasses is one of the two natural foods which contain a special ingredient (wulzen factor) that has been shown to prevent and
cure wrist-stiffness, muscular dystrophy and arthritis.
Ulcers, dermatitis, hair damage, eczema, psoriasis, angina pectoris, and nervous conditions may also respond to supplementing
the diet with mineral-rich molasses.
Dosage: In general the recommended daily dosage is 1 tablespoon dissolved in warm water or taken as is.
Cautions: Molasses should not be thought of as an all-purpose cure but as a useful weapon in the healing armory. Like sugar,
molasses can cause tooth decay, so either clean your teeth or rinse your mouth thoroughly after use, especially if you take it
straight from a spoon.
