Eating just 2-3 dates every day can have numerous health benefits. Rich in essential nutrients, dates are an excellent source of dietary fibre, potassium, magnesium. 

Dr Sam Watts, a trained clinical practitioner of Ayurveda, who has a PhD in cancer research from the University of Southampton, has spoke about what happens to your body when you eat 2-3 dates every day.

“This is why we should all be making dates an integral part of our daily diet. “In Ayurvedic medicine, dates are revered as one of the most important health tonic foods, and Western research validates that. It shows that if we regularly consume 2 to 3 dates a day, ideally in the morning, it gives us profound changes. They induce profound changes in the body.”
