Talk about winters and this gooey, dark brown and uniquely tasty dry-fruit comes to mind. We’re talking about Dates that have all the goodness one needs in the winter months. Dates are known to possess many health benefits, but did you know that dried dates too, or Chhuaras as they are called, are no less when it comes to being wholesome and nourishing. Dry dates are basically dates without the moisture which make them look harder and shriveled; these are also used for religious purposes during festivals in Indian households. In addition, they are excellent energy boosters and a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals that can help you regain good health.
According to Delhi based Nutritionist Dr. Lokendra Tomar, “dry dates contain less moisture as compared to fresh dates and have a prolonged life span than dates. Dry dates are significantly higher in calories, so if you are looking at losing weight, you should limit your intake. However, they are an excellent source of fiber and protein that help keep your body healthy. Other than that, they are a good source of calcium and vitamin C too.”
