Satisfy your sweet tooth while soaking up additional health benefits this winter. The goal is to pick nutrient-rich food that helps support your healthy eating goals and keep your blood sugar in check. For those looking for an indulgent healthy treat, dates make for the best pick.

Dates are fat-free, cholesterol-free, and sodium-free; thus delivering a dose of carbohydrates that is readily and easily absorbed by the body, providing a quick energy boost with a count of only 23 calories per fruit.

As we enter the colder months, frequent snacking can very easily lead to weight gain. A brilliant way to take in routine refreshments is by incorporating dates into your diet. This mystery fruit that nestles between raisins and prunes is ideal for weight loss, is high in nutritive value and promotes brain power, among various other benefits. 

The date palm in ancient cultures was also called ‘the tree of life’ for a good reason. A simple daily serving of this nutritional powerhouse provides fiber to help fill you up, promotes healthy digestion and heart health, and is an excellent source of potassium thereby helping muscles contract, nerves to function and hearts to beat regularly.
