ADVERTISEMENT

Instructions:

  • Soak the dates and prunes in water overnight to soften.
  • In the morning, blend the soaked dates, prunes, and water until smooth.
  • Drink a glass of this mixture on an empty stomach and wait about 30 minutes before eating breakfast.

This drink can be consumed daily to help maintain regular bowel movements and cleanse the intestines.

Incorporating Dates into Your Diet:

Snack on Whole Dates: Simply eating 3-4 dates per day can increase fiber intake and promote regular bowel movements.

Add to Smoothies: Include dates in your morning smoothie for a natural sweetness and a fiber boost.

Use in Baking: Substitute sugar with dates in recipes for cakes, breads, and other baked goods to enhance nutritional content and fiber.

Precautions

  • While dates are beneficial for most people, consuming them in large amounts can lead to too much fiber intake, which might cause discomfort, bloating, or diarrhea.
  • Start with a small amount and see how your body responds before gradually increasing your intake.

Also, due to their high sugar content, individuals with diabetes should monitor their blood sugar levels when increasing their intake of dates.
