Benefits Of Eating The Jamaican Black Cake

By Janet Thomas


Jamaican black cake is a spiced gateau made of cherries, raisins, prunes and other fruits. It was originally made for Christmas but it is not a must for one to restrict themselves to enjoying it only during Christmas since nowadays cakes are bought during any event regardless of the season. To some extent, this is a fruitcake. Below are some of the health benefits that come with eating fruitcakes in general.

You will be able a goodnight sleep much better. Usually, gateau causes lack of sleep due to having large amounts of sugar, therefore, causing hyperactivity. This gateau, however, has rum, which is non-alcoholic and is extracted from molasses. This paired up with nutmeg, which is another component of the gateau, induces sound sleep.

You get to enjoy enough supply of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Fruitcake is usually made of dried up fruit. People think that dried fruit has no nutritional value which is not the case. The study shows that these fruits have the same nutritional value as fresh fruits only that theirs is more compressed. Thus, dried fruit has up to three point five times additional addictives than fresh fruits.

For the first time ever, gateau helps in avoiding disease from the human body. The fruitcake mostly contains antioxidants. The most common one is the polyphenols. Polyphenols are known for one major health benefit which is reducing the risk of various contamination. These diseases include obesity, cancer and diabetes among many other non-communicable contaminations.

The last thing you want is to start dealing with high blood pressure or low blood pressure. The fruitcake ensures that you absolutely do not have to worry about such things. Cinnamon is one of the ingredients of the gateau. Cinnamon has been seen as a naturally decreasing blood sugar level remedy. This is supported by the Chinese who have used it for centuries.

You are protected from the risk of experiencing heart failure. This is due to the presence of rum in the gateau that prevents peripheral artery disease by blocking the hardening of the walls of the artery. It also affects cholesterol levels by raising the levels of the good protein which is known as high-density lipoprotein and dropping the levels of the bad protein known as low-density lipoprotein.

If you are having digestive symptoms, fruit gateau could actually relieve you. This is because of the nutmeg in the fruitcake. So if you feel some kind of stomach upset, the fruitcake should be able to relieve you. Nutmeg has been occasionally been used as a relief measure for the gastrointestinal system for centuries. People used to grate nutmeg into their soup as a precautionary measure.

It is a great source of energy. The dried fruit contains little to no fat and is therefore regarded as a natural source of energy. You should, therefore, try taking in a piece of the gateau in the morning and it will leave you energized for the rest of the day. Your mood will also be pleasant.
