1. The efficacy and function of fresh red dates

1. Anti-fatigue

Modern people are under a lot of pressure. Tension and stress consume a lot of vitamin C in our bodies. Fresh dates are rich in vitamin C. Normally, the human body stores 1.5 grams of vitamin C, which is quickly consumed when stress increases. Therefore, eating fresh dates to supplement vitamin C can reduce fatigue.

2. Lowers blood pressure

Fresh dates contain potassium, which can help the body break down sodium and reduce the sodium content in the body. High sodium is a major culprit of high blood pressure, so fresh dates have the effect of lowering blood pressure.

3. Soften blood vessels

The rich vitamin C in fresh dates can help soften blood vessels and reduce cholesterol in the blood, thus effectively preventing cardiovascular diseases and reducing the incidence of coronary heart disease and arteriosclerosis.

4. Protect the liver

The vitamin C in fresh dates can also reduce the damage of chemical drugs to the liver, promote protein synthesis, and increase the total serum protein content.

5. Prevent gallstones

The rich vitamin C in fresh dates converts excess cholesterol in the body into bile acid. With less cholesterol, the probability of stone formation also decreases.

2. How delicious are fresh dates?

Fresh dates are usually eaten directly. Soak the fresh dates in salt water for a while, then rinse them and eat them directly. They have a very crisp taste and the flesh is very sweet. They are suitable for daily fruit consumption to supplement the body with vitamins. Of course, fresh dates can also be used to make some special dishes, such as fruit salad. Wash the fresh dates, cut them open, remove the core, and put them in a bowl with apples, bananas, pears, oranges and other fruits. Add salad dressing and stir, and a delicious fruit salad is born.
