We cannot finish counting the benefits of dates, which have a very long history. Dates, which are thought to have been consumed for the first time in the Middle East, are quite popular in the region today. It is a known fact that the fruit, which is grown in different varieties, prevents cancer formation thanks to its antioxidant and cell-renewing properties.
Dates, which are a fruit that grows on trees, are suitable for growing in arid climates since they do not require much water. The date tree, which does not require much intensive care, is known for the abundance of products it has given from the past to the present. It is recommended that it should not be exposed to excessive heat during the consumption process and that it should be eaten without washing because it is a musty fruit.
Dates, which are called by different names according to the countries and regions where they grow, stand out as the most commonly consumed types as Medina Mebrum, Dallı Tunisia, Jerusalem, and Iranian Dates. While dates grown in the Tunisia region are sweeter, Palestinian and Iranian Dates have small seeds. Jerusalem Dates are a frequently preferred variety with their shiny appearance and fleshy structure.
These dates, which have completely different appearances, play an important role in child development as well as adult nutrition. Dates, which have many different benefits, are most notable for their blood-forming properties, strengthening the eyes, preventing osteoporosis, strengthening the liver, reducing stress and tension, supporting the digestive system and helping to lose weight.
With a sugar content of up to 80 percent, dates are also very beneficial for health with their high amounts of fiber, protein and magnesium. It is known that an adult can meet their needs by eating 3 dates a day and that this is equivalent to consuming a serving of fruit. The fruit, which can be found in fresh and dried form, can damage the spleen and cause headaches and eye pain when consumed excessively.
