Health Benefits of Dates
1. Nutritious
Not only are dates very delicious, but they are also very nutritious. Dates are full of carbs and this is good for people who want a high-energy diet. In addition to packing the calories, dates are also packed full of vitamins and minerals, along with a decent amount of protein and a high amount of fiber. Around 100 grams of dates will give you around 20% of the recommended daily intake (RDI) of potassium. They will also provide around 18% of the RDI of copper, 15% the RDI of manganese, and 14% the RDI of magnesium. In addition, there is around 7 grams of fiber and 2 grams of protein.
