A member asked:
Is jaggery same like sugar? cause i am trying to avoid sugar for fat lose. but heard that jaggery is better than having sugar even for child.

Sugar: Jaggery has about the same calories and so not likely to offer much advantage as far as weight loss but would have some added nutritional properties beyond table sugar. You might want to consider stevia or better still avoid sweetening altogether. I tell my patients "most of the time the enemy tastes sweet".
