Ayurvedic sugar Whole cane sugar, which is produced manually, is of the healthy kind. Sharkara® is a specially purified sugar. Sharkara has completely different properties than white industrial sugar.

During the production of Sharkara, the sugar solution is purified and enriched, so the sugar crystals are allowed to grow. A slow recrystallization of the Ayurvedic sugar also enhances it. Sharkara is taking the intense solar radiation bleached in the open air without sulfurizing it. Therefore it is not acidic, but is metabolized in an alkaline way.

The brown jaggery is a natural product and, unlike the Sharkara sugar, is not bleached in the sun. Therefore it is cheaper, but well tolerated by all Dosha types.

The Ayurvedic sugars that we carry in our range are tasty, natural, stimulate the appetite and support the nourishment of the body. Sharkara reduces and cools Pitta and Vata and stabilizes the digestive fire agni.
