Brown sugar is a very popular type of sugar that is regarded around the world because of if health benefits and different properties than regular crystalized white sugar. Because brown sugar is manufactured in a different chemical process than white sugar, it has a different chemical structure and our bodies react little differently to this. This subtle difference makes brown sugar very attractive to the people who want to re-balance their diet, get healthy and gain some of its many benefits. Brown sugar is made by allowing some of the sugary molasses to remain in its structure, thus enriching leaving final product in a more natural state that is not enriched with industrial additives (such as sulphur dioxide, phosphoric acid, calcium hydroxide, and activated carbon). Those additives are not needed to be present in the sugar, and their presence disturbs the smell and the color of natural sugar. Additionally, industrial process that removes all traces of molasses removes almost all presence of calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and phosphorus, that can all help your body reach mineral equilibrium.
