4 Health Benefits of Organic Medjool Dates

1) Potassium Powerhouse: Organic Medjool dates are chock-full of potassium, the mineral that protects the heart by keeping sodium levels in check and preventing high blood pressure. A 1-cup serving of dates contains up to three times as much potassium as a 1-cup serving of bananas.

2) High in Fiber: Every 2.4 ounces of Medjool dates provides six grams of dietary fiber. Most Americans do not meet the daily recommended intake for fiber (25 to 30 grams a day from food), so a handful of dates can help you get more fiber in your diet. Fiber is essential for a healthy digestive system and it can be beneficial for lowering bad cholesterol.

3) Mighty Minerals: Stock up on minerals during snack-time! Dates supply important minerals like calcium, magnesium and copper. These minerals support everything from the health of bones and teeth to the production of red blood cells.

4) B-complex Vitamins: Are you getting your B Vitamins? Medjool dates are a good source of the B-complex vitamins known as pyridoxine, niacin, pantothenic acid and riboflavin. These essential vitamins assist the body by helping to convert food into energy.

Organic Medjool dates contain pits. There are approximately 23 dates per pound.
