Benefits:
Figs:
Dates are a very good source of potassium. They are good for cardiovascular health and can help reduce the amount of insulin for people with diabetes. Fantastic in a smoothie.
Oats:
Oats help to lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease. Excellent for stabilizing blood sugar – which is also why they can be so good as a running fuel. High in fibre and antioxidants.
