Whenever pancakes are mentioned anywhere in the world, the words maple syrup are almost, always mentioned soon after. Nobody can deny the delight of watching the almost gourmet, maple syrup pour from the bottle on to an otherwise bland piece of soft, almost bread like pancake.
However, the famous maple syrup is just not good for the sweet tooth, but its benefits are far more profound than the tantalizing taste of the sticky syrup. It can be used to cleanse the body from the inside, to reinforce the immune system and to pamper the heart.
The secret of the herb healer qualities of the syrup is the high amount of minerals present in it. Mix those with the low calories and the amazing taste and viola; you have magic medicine that people will be all the more happy to consume. The syrupy goodness has high levels of manganese present in it, which is an important cofactor for a number of enzymes. These enzymes are important, as they disarm free radicals, produced in the cells thus serving as an antioxidant but they need manganese to do so. Every ounce of this miracle liquid provides 22 percent of the daily requirement of manganese. The zinc content helps to metabolise alcohol too quickly, which also detoxifies the body.
The other mineral, zinc, helps maintain healthy arteries and veins, which in turn prevents atherosclerosis, or in layman terms, the gathering of a waxy plaque on the insides of the arteries or veins, which may lead to blockages and torment the heart. Zinc is also needed for the healthy functioning of the cells making up the innermost layer of the arteries and veins, known as the endothelium layer. All in all it keeps the blood pumping on a healthy rate and reduces the work for the heart.
Pure maple syrup and its zinc content also fight off infections such as the common cold, as zinc helps the production of white blood cells, whether they be the T helper cells or the macrophages that engulf intruding bacteria altogether.
Moreover, gourmet maple syrup is extremely beneficial for men and their prostrate glands, as zinc not only helps keep cancer at bay but also maintains a healthy sexual reproductive system. In fact, now days, people are playing with the idea of organic chemotherapy by giving the body bicarbonates of the syrup, which kills cancer cells without damaging the body.
This sugary goodness is also good for those who plan on losing weight, due to its low calorie content. It can be used for a potent, healthier alternative to sugar in desserts and beverages. Also if diets are your thing, try the lemon-maple diet, which helps detoxify the body while you lose weight.
So if you want medicine fit for a king, switch to gourmet maple syrup, as there is nothing better than going organic.
