Blackstrap Molasses: Safe Sweetener, Laxative, Good for Hair, And Rich In Iron! (Video)

Hola nuggets! I hope everyone is having a very groovy day today! Today I’m going to talk about the benefits of blackstrap molasses. The reason I bring this up is because my groovy lover and I have been trying to dramatically change our diet lately. I found a book in my room the other day called Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar Miracle Health System By: Paul Bragg. I have only read a couple of pages but it has been a life changing experience. It has reminded me that a healthy lifestyle is so easy to achieve. Anyways, to get to the point my amazing and smart lover told me that in the book it talks about how important potassium is for the body and how even with a good amount of fruits and vegetables in your diet you could probably still be short of potassium. Blackstrap Molasses to the rescue!

Since I didn’t know a lot of benefits about blackstrap molasses I decided to look them up on naturalnews.com (one of my favorite websites for health news). Here is what I found:

Good for hair – One serving (two tablespoons) of blackstrap contains approximately 14 percent of our RDI of copper, an important trace mineral whose peptides help rebuild the skin structure that supports healthy hair. Consequently, long-term consumption of blackstrap has been linked to improved hair quality, hair regrowth in men and even a restoration of your hair’s original color!
