You’ve heard about it and possibly even use it as part of your diet and meals — molasses. But what is it, and does it truly have health benefits?
Molasses is a thick, dark liquid that originates from the production of sugar. It is mostly made from sugar plants, mainly sugarcane and sugar beets. It can also be made from less common food sources like mulberries, dates, and apricots.
When the sugar cannot be crystallized further, the leftover liquid is what we know as molasses.
Although molasses is a byproduct of sugar, it contains important nutrients such as manganese and magnesium.
