A staple ingredient in Middle Eastern cuisine and in many Mediterranean nations, the date<\/strong> is a sweet fruit that was probably among the first to be cultivated by humans. There are about 40 varieties, and they have great benefits for our health: here are the most important benefits of dates<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dates are rich in iron, potassium, protein, dietary fiber, calcium, vitamins A, C and group B. They contain significant amounts of copper, magnesium, manganese, selenium and zinc, and have antiviral, anti-inflammatory and anti-hemorrhagic properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Digestion<\/strong>. Being rich in fiber, dates improve digestion and regulate cholesterol levels. They can reduce appetite, leading us to eat much less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Anemia<\/strong>. Dates contain a lot of iron (0.9 mg per 100 grams of product, about 11% of the recommended daily intake). But it doesn’t end there: iron improves the flow of oxygen to the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Heart attacks<\/strong>. The large amounts of potassium contained in dates protect the nervous system, and can reduce the risk of suffering heart attacks by 40%. The phosphorus in dates nourishes the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Constipation<\/strong>. They detoxify the body, promote digestion and treat constipation. Soak a few dates in water overnight, then drink the next morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hypertension<\/strong>. 5-6 dates provide our body with about 80 mg of magnesium, a mineral that dilates blood vessels and regulates blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eyes<\/strong>. This fruit contains lutein and zeaxanthin, two nutrients that support and protect healthy eyesight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Share article<\/p>\n\n\n\n Important: This website does not give medical advice, nor does it suggest the use of techniques as a form of treatment for physical problems, for which medical advice is required.
