Eating just three dates a day can provide a range of health benefits thanks to their nutrient-rich profile. Dates offer key nutrients like magnesium, potassium, calcium, manganese, iron, phosphorus, and vitamin A. They’re also high in natural fiber, aiding digestion and gut health, and low in fat with moderate protein. With about 280 calories per 100 grams, dates are energy-packed. Plus, their antioxidants (flavonoids, carotenoids, phenolic acid) help fight inflammation and oxidative stress, potentially lowering chronic disease risks.
