Dates are easily digested so as not to hurt the stomach of a fasting person.
Dates can reduce hunger so that you do not rush to eat heavy food excessively. The reason, eating food excessively, especially after fasting can cause indigestion.
Dates prepare the stomach to receive food after no activity all day because of fasting. Eating dates will help to activate the release of digestive secretions.
Dates are enriched with energy because they contain sugar. That way the body will get the supply of nutrients from sugar needed by brain cells and nerves.
Dates prevent constipation due to dietary changes. Constipation can also be caused by a lack of fiber intake in the food consumed.
The content of alkaline salt in dates is useful for adjusting the acidity of blood due to the consumption of meat and carbohydrates. This blood acidity causes some diseases such as diabetes, gout, kidney stones, gallbladder inflammation, high blood pressure and hemorrhoids.
