Coconut Palm Sugar-Agra

What is the best thing of Coconut palm sugar? Is it the taste, or the unique color and form?
No, what's best of Coconut palm sugar was that it could help you stay healthy.

From Wikipedia
The Glycemic Index of coconut sugar was reported by the Philipppine Coconut Authority to be 35 and by that measure it is classified as a low glycemic index food.[5] However, in that study the glucose standard was fed as an aqueous solution, while the sugar was fed as sugar. Making the test food slower and more difficult to absorb and digest relative to the test solution will lower its GI value.[6] It is considered[by whom?] to be healthier than refined white sugar(60) and brown sugar(64).[citation needed] It can be used as a 1:1 sugar substitute for coffee, tea, baking, and cooking.
Coconut sugar has a high mineral content, being a rich source of potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron. In addition to this it contains Vitamin B1, B2, B3, and B6. When compared to brown sugar, coconut sugar has 18 times the potassium, 30 times the phosphorus and over 10 times the amount of zinc.[7] The large amounts of K and P can explained by the way coconut sugar is tapped from the inflorescences of the tree.
The coconut sap, from which coconut sugar is derived, contains 16 amino acids. The amino acid which has the highest content in coconut sap is Glutamine.[8]
