Hi Karthik;

Namaste;

Please be informed that white sugar is processed over charred beef

bones to receive the shine and I'm not sure how/why. The

molasses/mineral rich constituents are then added back in to make the

commercially knwn "brown sugar". I heard yesterday on an audioo tape

with Dr. Sarita Shrestha that "sugar candy" the rock sugar? can be

kapha reducing; I do not know how it is prepared, but it is much less

sweet. It is used medicinally in some cases, such as sitopoladi

churna. This is my contribution

 

I look forward to the other anwsers to your questions also.

Blessings;

Martha
