Dates

Dates are the fruit of the date palm tree, which is cultivated in many tropical areas of the world. They are incredibly delicious and very nutrient-dense.

Dates have a sweet taste and are chewy. Most of the calories in dates come from carbs. A very small quantity of protein makes up the rest. They are an excellent source of fiber, potassium, iron, and healthy plant chemicals even if they have been dried. In addition to satisfying your sugar craving, eating a few dates can provide you with some important nutrients. For a sweet and crunchy treat, you may even consider combining them with nuts like almonds. However, keep in mind that dates are delicious; thus, limit yourself to one portion, or about three dates, at a time.
