Sugar Cane Juice

When was the first time you had sugar cane juice?

My first time was when I got to Kuala Lumpur for my tertiary education. so I did not grow up drinking sugar cane juice.

It was quite a novelty for me, the sweet soothing juice. I remember liking it so much that I would buy one plastic bag of the juice every time I was in Petaling Jaya and brought it back to the hostel to drink slowly.

when I went back to Sibu I looked for it but we did not have sugar cane juice in the market until one or two years later. Someone was innovative and brought a machine to make the juice. And I wondered where all those sugar canes came from.

I read from a few books and found that it is a wonder juice.

Sugar cane juice has quite a number of health benefits. It prevents cancer and aids in idgetion. It also prevents heart diseases and stroke as it helps decrease the levels of unhealthy cholesterol and triglycerides.

Though sweet, it helps in reducing weight as it reduces the bad cholesterol levels in the body!!

It is good for  treating diabetes and clears skin imperfections.

Fresh sugar cane juice is most popularly found in Miri and Sibu during the Muslim fasting month.
