Website Product Descriptions – Black Strap Molasses

SUMMARY

Blackstrap molasses is derived from the waste products created during the manufacture of sugar. This “waste” product is rich in iron, vitamins and minerals, making it a reliable and gentle supplement. Our bodies need iron in order to manufacture hundreds of vital enzymes and proteins throughout the body. It is responsible for the synthesis of hemoglobin and myoglobin, both of which are responsible for the transport of oxygen to muscle tissue.

Iron is absorbed through the consumption of certain foods such as meats, leafy greens, and nuts. Symptoms associated with iron deficiency include low energy, headaches, weight loss, loss of appetite, and dizziness. While most people get enough iron in their diets, others find that a supplement is necessary in order to meet their daily iron needs.

Blackstrap molasses is a good source of non-heme iron, as well as magnesium, copper, selenium, potassium, B vitamins and chromium.

DIRECTIONS

Take one tablespoon one to two times per day. Dissolve in a cup of lukewarm water and sip on an empty stomach.
