Whole cane sugar and raw cane sugar have more nutrients than refined white cane sugar due to the molasses contained. However, sugar is not suitable for covering the body’s nutritional needs as it contains only a small amount of nutrients. A sufficient quantity of nutrients would also be accompanied by a high amount of calories. In addition, excessive consumption of sugar has a negative effect on dental health.
A comparison of the contents of cane sugar, raw cane sugar and whole cane sugar shows that the sugar and calorie content only varies marginally. Whole cane sugar contains the most molasses and thus the lowest amount of carbohydrates or sugar.
