About this episode
Fig fruit is one of my favorites for a TON of reasons. Aside from the delicious taste of dried figs, there are numerous fig health benefits that are great not just for your body but your mind, too! Figs are so powerful in your health and nurture you from the inside and out. They nourish your cells and provide them with nutrients that support their health and help repair and regenerate worn-out cells. Eating a handful of figs daily is also a natural way to prevent diabetes. Want a healthy snack that will benefit your bone health? One of the many health benefits of fig fruit is to support healthy bones in children and to sustain bone density in older individuals. This is all because of the high calcium level in figs. The potassium levels in figs are also important in regulating blood pressure. If you suffer from high blood pressure, munching on some figs can help with that. There is also a good amount of iron in figs, which is great for those who suffer from anemia. Pregnant women should also munch on more figs. Figs are loaded with vitamin B6, a vital nutrient for enhancing good memory. From your cognition to your bones and blood pressure, figs are truly essential in supporting total health. Enjoy eating more figs, and your body can reap numerous health benefits from this fruit. How can you eat figs daily?
