BrainMax Pure Dried Figs – Whole Organic, 250 g
Figs are easily digestible and provide the body with many antioxidants that help protect against oxidative stress. Potassium and fiber, two very important components for the body that are often deficient, and figs are a great food to conveniently supplement both. Fiber helps the digestive system and also keeps you feeling full for longer. Potassium, which figs also contain, is essential for maintaining normal blood pressure and is generally beneficial for the cardiovascular system. Figs are commonly dried, first of all because they spoil easily and very quickly when fresh, and then also because their health-promoting substances multiply even more after drying. It is therefore no wonder that figs are a basic element of the Mediterranean diet. In the past, figs were even so popular among the Greeks that laws were passed preventing their export. Fortunately, this is no longer the case and figs can become part of the everyday diet.
