Sugar : Something Sweet to Think About

Pure organic raw cane sugar is good for health!

Sugar occurs in greatest quantities in sugar cane and sugar beets, from which it is separated for commercial use. Sugar from both sources is produced in nature as all green plants produce sugar: as a means of storing the sun's energy. The "simple" sugars, or monosaccharides (such as glucose), store energy which biological cells use and consume.

Sucrose is a larger sugar molecule that breaks down into glucose and fructose in the intestine during metabolism. Glucose is the vital fuel that the brain cells use. It is also fuels energy in the body.
 
Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medicinal paradigm, holds organic cane sugar - the kind with little refinement - in the highest regard. Sugar is sweet, nourishing, develops semen, is beneficial for the eyes and gives your body strength. It eliminates excessive humors of wind and bile in the body and keeps the toxicity of cells in check. Why are we telling you this? Because we here at eSutras believe in the powers of our own organic cane sugar! And we've constructed our business model and the products we sell around the principles of the Ayurvedic tradition.

Uses of raw sugar according to Ayurveda :
When sugar is chewed in its raw state or eaten, undissolved, in a food, its properties and effects become hot. That is to say, if you eat a spoonful of raw, refined sugar, it will give you a quick burst of energy that soon leaves you feeling lethargic and weakened. When you dissolve sugar in a glass of water, however, its properties become cold, satisfying your thirst and strengthening your outlook.

+ Drinking a hot or cold beverage in which some sugar is dissolved produces a calming effect on the brain, while increasing stamina.

+ Dissolved in a cup of yogurt, sugar provides stability in the intestines.

+ Drinking water mixed with sugar brings quick relief in dysentery.
(Of course the excessive use of sugar is harmful. It causes many complications in the body like acidity, inflammation, swelling, diabetes and rheumatism. Everything in moderation, as they say!)

And remember, eSutras.com has some divine sugar products that will produce those cold effects your body will love! Try our Cool Mint Drinking Cocoa Mix or our Mocha Vanilla Sugar, Lavender Sugar, Rose Sugar & Berry Limone Sugar.

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.
